Simulating Hamiltonian dynamics /

Geometric integrators are timestepping methods, designed to exactly satisfy properties inherent in a system of differential equations. Beginning from basic principles of geometric integration and a discussion of the advantageous properties of such schemes, the book introduces a variety of methods an...
