Hamiltonian and reversible systems with smooth families of invariant tori

For various values of n, d, and the phase space dimension, we construct simple examples of Hamiltonian and reversible systems possessing smooth d-parameter families of invariant n-tori carrying conditionally periodic motions. In the Hamiltonian case, these tori can be isotropic, coisotropic, or atropic (neither isotropic nor coisotropic). The cases of non-compact and compact phase spaces are considered. In particular, for any N no less than 3 and any vector omega in R^N, we present an example of an analytic Hamiltonian system with N degrees of freedom and with an isolated (and even unique) invariant N-torus carrying conditionally periodic motions with frequency vector omega (but this torus is atropic rather than Lagrangian and the symplectic form is not exact). Examples of isolated atropic invariant tori carrying conditionally periodic motions are given in the paper for the first time. The paper can also be used as an introduction to the problem of the isolatedness of invariant tori in Hamiltonian and reversible systems.
