Abstract
A survey of topics of recent interest in Hamiltonian and Lagrangian dynamical systems, including accessible discussions of regularization of the central force problem; inequivalent Lagrangians and Hamiltonians; constants of central force motion; a general discussion of higher-order Lagrangians and Hamiltonians with examples from Bohmian quantum mechanics, the Korteweg-de Vries equation and the logistic equation; gauge theories of Newtonian mechanics; classical spin, Grassmann numbers, and pseudomechanics.
