Classical and Quantum Dynamics

Advanced computational strategies in classical and quantum dynamics are thoroughly explored, offering both fundamental concepts and in-depth discussions on topics such as the time-dependent oscillator, Chern-Simons mechanics, the Maslov anomaly, and the Berry phase. The text includes well-chosen examples that illustrate key techniques like perturbation theory, canonical transformations, and the action principle, while also demonstrating the application of path integrals in various contexts. This comprehensive approach serves as a valuable resource for graduate students.
