Approximate invariant tori in phase space are found using a non-perturbative, numerical solution of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation for a nonlinear, time-periodic Hamiltonian. The Hamiltonian is written in the action-angle variables of its solvable part. The solution of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation is represented as a Fourier series in the angle variables but not in the time' variable. The Fourier coefficients of the solution are regarded as the fixed point of a nonlinear map. The fixed point is found using a simple iteration or a Newton-Broyden iteration. The Newton-Broyden method is slower than the simple iteration, but it yields solutions at amplitudes that are significant compared to the dynamic aperture.' Invariant tori are found for the dynamics of a charged particle in a storage ring with sextupole magnets. 10 refs., 3 figs., 3 tabs.
