Symplectic geometry is the geometry underlying Hamiltonian dynamics, and symplectic mappings come up as time-1-maps of Hamiltonian flows. The wonderful pressure phenomena for symplectic mappings stumbled on within the final twenty years convey that sure issues cannot be performed via a symplectic mapping. for example, Gromov's recognized "non-squeezing'' theorem states that one can't map a ball right into a thinner cylinder by way of a symplectic embedding. the purpose of this ebook is to teach that definite different issues can be performed via symplectic mappings. this can be accomplished via numerous effortless and specific symplectic embedding structures, comparable to "folding", "wrapping'', and "lifting''. those buildings are performed intimately and are used to resolve a few particular symplectic embedding difficulties.

The exposition is self-contained and addressed to scholars and researchers drawn to geometry or dynamics.

R. Miron's The Geometry of Higher-Order Hamilton Spaces: Applications PDF

This booklet is the 1st to give an summary of higher-order Hamilton geometry with purposes to higher-order Hamiltonian mechanics. it's a direct continuation of the publication The Geometry of Hamilton and Lagrange areas, (Kluwer educational Publishers, 2001). It comprises the final idea of upper order Hamilton areas H(k)n, k>=1, semisprays, the canonical nonlinear connection, the N-linear metrical connection and their constitution equations, and the Riemannian nearly touch metrical version of those areas.
