Antonio Giorgilli is a retired Professor of Mathematics at the Università degli Studi di Milano and has been elected corresponding member of Istituto Lombardo Accademia di Scienze e Lettere since 2005. He has taught courses in mathematical physics and dynamical systems ranging from undergraduate to PhD level. His research in dynamical systems focuses on the characterization of chaos, KAM theory and Nekhoroshev's theory on exponential stability. In addition to being an Invited Speaker of the 1998 International Congress of Mathematicians, Giorgilli's other notable honors include the International Gili Agostinelli Prize for Pure or Applied Mechanics or Classical Mathematical Physics by the Accademia delle Scienze di Torino in 2007. The minor planet 27855 Giorgilli, discovered in 1995, is named in his honor.

Paperback. Condition: New. Starting with the basics of Hamiltonian dynamics and canonical transformations, this text follows the historical development of the theory culminating in recent results: the Kolmogorov-Arnold-Moser theorem, Nekhoroshev's theorem and superexponential stability. Its analytic approach allows students to learn about perturbation methods leading to advanced results. Key topics covered include Liouville's theorem, the proof of Poincare?'s non-integrability theorem and the nonlinear dynamics in the neighbourhood of equilibria. The theorem of Kolmogorov on persistence of invariant tori and the theory of exponential stability of Nekhoroshev are proved via constructive algorithms based on the Lie series method. A final chapter is devoted to the discovery of chaos by Poincare? and its relations with integrability, also including recent results on superexponential stability. Written in an accessible, self-contained way with few prerequisites, this book can serve as an introductory text for senior undergraduate and graduate students. Seller Inventory # LU-9781009151139
