Symplectic Geometry of Integrable Hamiltonian Systems

By Eugene Lerman, Michèle Audin, Ana Cannas da Silva

Among all the Hamiltonian systems, the integrable ones have special geometric properties; in particular, their solutions are very regular and quasi-periodic. This book serves as an introduction to symplectic and contact geometry for graduate students, exploring the underlying geometry of integrable Hamiltonian systems. Includes exercises designed to complement the expositiont, and up-to-date references.
