MAT461H1: Hamiltonian Mechanics

36L

This course focuses on key notions of classical mechanics: Newton equations, variational principles, Lagrangian formulation and Euler-Lagrange equations, the motion in a central force, the motion of a rigid body, small oscillations, Hamiltonian formulation, canonical transformations, Hamilton-Jacobi theory, action-angle variables, and integrable systems.
