GEOMETRY MECHANICS AND DYNAMICS GEBUNDEN

This book illustrates the broad range of Jerry Marsden¿s mathematical legacy in areas of
geometry  mechanics  and dynamics  from very pure mathematics to very applied  but always with
a geometric perspective. Each contribution develops its material from the viewpoint of
geometric mechanics beginning at the very foundations  introducing readers to modern issues via
illustrations in a wide range of topics. The twenty refereed papers contained in this volume
are based on lectures and research performed during the month of July 2012 at the Fields
Institute for Research in Mathematical Sciences  in a program in honor of Marsden's legacy. The
unified treatment of the wide breadth of topics treated in this book will be of interest to
both experts and novices in geometric mechanics. Experts will recognize applications of their
own familiar concepts and methods in a wide variety of fields  some of which they may never
have approached from a geometric viewpoint. Novices may choose topics that interest them among
the various fields and learn about geometric approaches and perspectives toward those topics
that will be new for them as well.
