Area-preserving diffeomorphisms of the torus whose rotation sets have non-empty interior

In this paper we consider $C^{1+ε}$ area-preserving diffeomorphisms of the torus $f,$ either homotopic to the identity or to Dehn twists. We suppose that $f$ has a lift $\widetilde{f}$ to the plane such that its rotation set has interior and prove, among other things that if zero is an interior point of the rotation set, then there exists a hyperbolic $\widetilde{f}$-periodic point $\widetilde{Q}$$\in {\rm I}\negthinspace {\rm R^2}$ such that $W^u(\widetilde{Q})$ intersects $W^s(\widetilde{Q}+(a,b))$ for all integers $(a,b)$, which implies that $\bar{W^u(\widetilde{Q})}$ is invariant under integer translations. Moreover, $\bar{W^u(\widetilde{Q})}=\bar{W^s(\widetilde{Q})}$ and $\widetilde{f}$ restricted to $\bar{W^u(\widetilde{Q})}$ is invariant and topologically mixing. Each connected component of the complement of $\bar{W^u(\widetilde{Q})}$ is a disk with uniformly bounded diameter. If $f$ is transitive, then $\bar{W^u(\widetilde{Q})}=$${\rm I}\negthinspace {\rm R^2}$ and $\widetilde{f}$ is topologically mixing in the whole plane.
