In the 20’s, Birkhoff proved that any essential curve that is invariant by a symplectic twist map of the 2-dimensional annulus is the graph of a continuous map. We will give the main ideas of the proof of the following multidimensional version of this result: “The manifold M being compact and connected, every submanifold of T*M that is Hamiltonianly isotopic to the zero-section and that is invariant by a Tonelli Hamiltonian flow is a graph.”
