Beskrivning

Providing expanded material on the restricted three body problem and celestial mechanics, the third edition has new material on reduction, orbifolds and the regularization of the Kepler problem, all with applications. It provides a mathematical structure of celestial mechanics for beginners, and will be useful to graduate students and researchers.

Mer om författaren

Ken Meyer has a long history of working in Hamiltonian differential equations and the N-body problem. He has over 100 papers published. Daniel Offin is an active researcher in the theory of Hamiltonian systems using variational methods. He has made some important contributions to celestial mechanics using the Maslov index.

Recensioner i media

“The book begins as an elementary introduction to the theory of Hamiltonian systems, taking as a starting point Hamiltonian systems of differential equations and explaining the interesting features they have with the help of classical examples. … the book can be used at an advanced undergraduate or beginning graduate level as an introduction to these subjects, in particular when one is interested in their impact on classical (celestial) mechanics.” (Johannes Giannoulis, zbMATH 1372.70002, 2017)
