This Research Note explores existence and multiplicity questions for periodic solutions of first order, non-convex Hamiltonian systems. It introduces a new Morse (index) theory that is easier to use, less technical, and more flexible than existing theories and features techniques and results that, until now, have appeared only in scattered journals. Morse Theory for Hamiltonian Systems provides... Read more

Biography
Alberto Abbondandolo
"…provides an interesting introduction to index theories in the study of periodic solutions of Hamiltonian systems… the author presents some recently published results in the perspective of well-known ones and along the way he discusses several critical point techniques that could be useful in other problems."
