Theory of Orbits [E-Book] : Volume 1: Integrable Systems and Non-perturbative Methods / by Dino Boccaletti, Giuseppe Pucacco.
This textbook treats celestial mechanics as well as stellar dynamics from the common point of view of orbit theory making use of concepts and techniques from modern geometric mechanics. It starts with elementary Newtonian mechanics and ends with the dynamics of chaotic motions. The book is meant for...
