Asisknown,theLagrangeandHamiltongeometrieshaveappearedrelatively recently [76, 86]. Since 1980thesegeometrieshave beenintensivelystudied bymathematiciansandphysicistsfromRomania,Canada,Germany,Japan, Russia, Hungary,e.S.A. etc. PrestigiousscientificmeetingsdevotedtoLagrangeandHamiltongeome- tries and their applications have been organized in the above mentioned countries and a number ofbooks and monographs have been published by specialists in the field: R. Miron [94, 95], R. Mironand M. Anastasiei [99, 100], R. Miron, D. Hrimiuc, H. Shimadaand S.Sabau [115], P.L. Antonelli, R. Ingardenand M.Matsumoto [7].

Reviews for The Geometry of Higher-Order Hamilton Spaces. Applications to Hamiltonian Mechanics.
From the reviews: "The book is devoted to an extensive study of formal-geometric properties of higher-order nondegenerate one-dimensional variational integrals. … The author’s approach is useful for the construction of geometric models … . The book is precisely written, very clear, in principle self-contained and can be understood by non-specialists." (Jan Chrastina, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. ... Read more
