Central Configurations, Periodic Orbits, and Hamiltonian Systems (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

The notes of this book originate from three series of lectures given at the Centre de Recerca Matemàtica (CRM) in Barcelona. The first one is dedicated to the study of periodic solutions of autonomous differential systems in Rⁿ via the Averaging Theory and was delivered by Jaume Llibre. The second one, given by Richard Moeckel, focusses on methods for studying Central Configurations. The last one, by Carles Simó, describes the main mechanisms leading to a fairly global description of the dynamics in conservative systems.

The book is directed towards graduate students and researchers interested in dynamical systems, in particular in the conservative case, and aims at facilitating the understanding of dynamics of specific models. The results presented and the tools introduced in this book include a large range of applications.

Autorenporträt

Jaume Llibre is full professor at the Autonomous University of Barcelona (Spain) and a member of the Royal Academy of Sciences and Arts of Barcelona. He was a long-term visitor at different universities and research institutes. He is the author of many papers and has a large number of collaborators and Ph.D. students. His main results deal with periodic orbits, integrability, averaging theory, polynomial vector fields, Hamiltonian systems, celestial mechanics, and topological entropy. Rafael Ramírez studied at the Peoples Friendship University (UDN) and read his PhD thesis under the direction of Professor A.C. Galiullin. He is a professor at the Rovira i Virgili University of Tarragona (Spain) and is a collaborator of PhD students. His main results deal with the inverse problem of ordinary differential equations, mechanics, and nonholonomic systems.Valentín Ramírez studied at the University of Barcelona and read his PhD thesis under the direction of Professor J. Llibre. His main results deal with qualitative theory of ordinary differential equations, in particular with the center-focus problem, integrability, and development of mathematical models of financial risks.
