About this book
Reviews
“This book brings the reader from the basics of symplectic topology through several concepts and issues relative to Hamiltonian and Lagrangian systems, Hamilton-Jacobi equations, the calculus of variations, and Morse and Lusternik-Schnirelman theories. … The book seems best suited to researchers and students from graduate level onwards.” (Maria Letizia Bertotti, Mathematical Reviews, August, 2015)
