Symplectic geometry is the geometry underlying Hamiltonian dynamics, and symplectic mappings come up as time-1-maps of Hamiltonian flows. The remarkable tension phenomena for symplectic mappings found within the final 20 years convey that sure issues cannot be performed through a symplectic mapping. for example, Gromov's well-known "non-squeezing'' theorem states that one can't map a ball right into a thinner cylinder by way of a symplectic embedding. the purpose of this booklet is to teach that sure different issues can be performed via symplectic mappings. this is often accomplished via a variety of straight forward and particular symplectic embedding buildings, comparable to "folding", "wrapping'', and "lifting''. those structures are performed intimately and are used to unravel a few particular symplectic embedding difficulties.
The exposition is self-contained and addressed to scholars and researchers attracted to geometry or dynamics.

The Geometry of Special Relativity by Tevian Dray PDF
The Geometry of specified Relativity offers an advent to important relativity that encourages readers to determine past the formulation to the deeper geometric constitution. The textual content treats the geometry of hyperbolas because the key to knowing specified relativity. This process replaces the ever-present γ image of most traditional remedies with the precise hyperbolic trigonometric features.
