The book consists of two parts. Part I includes the main techniques in Hamiltonian dynamics such as the integrability and nonintegrability theory, the normal form theory (KAM theory, Nekhoroshev theorem), the hyperbolicity theory (the theorem of normally hyperbolic invariant manifold), the variational theory, systems of two degrees of freedom and the connecting orbit theory. In the more advanced Part II, authors specialize to the proof of Arnold diffusion. The techniques in Part I are fully exploited in Part II for people to understand theorems better via applications.The proof the classical Tonelli theorem, some preliminaries of ergodic theory and some basics of genercitity and transversality are given in the Appendix.
This book can be used as the textbook for graduate students in the field of Hamiltonian dynamics. It can also be used as reference for working mathematicians. Before reading this book, obtaining some understanding on Arnold's book Mathematical Methods in Classical Mechanics, algebraic topology, differential topology and convex analysis will be helpful.
Chongqing Cheng is a professor at Nanjing University. He has been engaged in the research of dynamical systems for many years. His main research interest is Hamiltonian dynamical systems, including dynamical instability, variational construction of connecting orbits, Arnold diffusion, KAM theory and weak KAM theory. He was an invited speaker at ICM 2010 Hyderabad. Jinxin Xue is a professor at Tsinghua University. His field of research is dynamical systems and his primary interests are to find various special orbits in dynamical systems. Prof. Xue solved the Painleve conjecture and the Arnold diffusion conjecture (jointly with C-Q. Cheng) in the smooth category for convex systems. Besides Hamiltonian dynamics, he also works on fields including hyperbolic dynamics, group actions, symplectic topology, mean curvature flow, etc.
