Description

Book Synopsis
Symplectic methods are key ingredients in the study of dynamical systems, differential equations, algebraic geometry, topology, mathematical physics and representations of Lie groups. This book presents an introduction to symplectic geometry, assuming only a general background in analysis and familiarity with linear algebra.

Table of Contents
Some aspects of theoretical mechanics Symplectic algebra Symplectic manifolds Hamiltonian vectorfields and the Poisson bracket The moment map Quantization Differentiable manifolds and vector bundles Lie groups and Lie algebras A little cohomology theory Representations of groups Bibliography Index Symbols.
