mktime(0,0,0,$mm,$dd,$YYYY) returns -1 (error) if $YYYY is inferior to 1901 or superior to 2039.

use of function date("Y", mktime(0,0,0,$mm,$dd,$YYYY))
with there values returns 1970.

The observed behaviour is correct. You can use mktime only for dates between the beginning of the epoch (1970) and the implementation limit (2038).
