Abstract
Renormalization group equations describing the phenomenon of intermittency in Hamiltonian systems are presented. All solutions satisfying certain physical constraints are obtained; they are the complete set of simple singularities. Further considerations lead to precise predictions for scaling behavior at the onset of intermittency.
