This book presents the advanced theory of Hamiltonian dynamics, with an emphasis on the recent development of variational methods and its application to the problem of Arnold diffusion. The main theme of the book is to study the dynamics of finite dimensional nearly integrable Hamiltonian systems, which are small perturbations of integrable systems.
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.

About the Author
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.

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Revaluation Books, Hounslow, United Kingdom, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods.
