Opis

This text contains selected papers from the AMS-IMS-SIAM Joint Summer Conference on Hamiltonian Systems and Celestial Mechanics held in Seattle in June 1995. Topics covered include twist maps, the Aubrey-Mather theory, Arnold diffusion, qualitative and topological studies of systems, and variational methods, as well as specific topics such as Melnikov's procedure and the singularity properties of particular systems. Many of the papers provide results, yet the editors purposely included some exploratory papers based on numerical computations, a section on unsolved problems, and papers that pose conjectures while developing what is known.
