    HAMILTONIAN SYSTEMS AND CELESTIAL MECHANICS
    (HAMSYS–98)
    Proceedings of the III International Symposium
    Pátzcuaro, Michoacán, México, 7 – 11 December 1998

    edited by J Delgado (Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana-Iztapalapa, México) , E A Lacomba (Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana-Iztapalapa, México) , E Pérez-Chavela (Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana-Iztapalapa, México) , & J Llibre (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, Spain)

    This volume is an outgrowth of the Third International Symposium on Hamiltonian Systems and Celestial Mechanics. The main topics are Arnold diffusion, central configurations, singularities in few-body problems, billiards, area-preserving maps, and geometrical mechanics. All papers in the volume went through the refereeing process typical of a mathematical research journal.
