Classical Mechanics by Matthew Hole
Classical mechanics is the abstraction and generalisation of Newton's laws of motion undertaken, historically, by Lagrange and Hamilton. This note will introduce the two main approaches to classical mechanics: 1. the variational formulation 2. the phase space formulation (Hamilton's equations, Poisson brackets, canonical transformations, action-angle variables).
