Arnol’d’s transformation—An example of a generalized canonical transformation

Daniel R. Stump

Open publisher page 9 citations

Abstract

The duality transformation described by Arnol’d, which relates the orbits for different central potentials through a change of variables, is shown to be an example of a generalized canonical transformation, in an extended phase space that includes time as a dynamical variable.
