Research article (book contribution) | Peer reviewed

Abstract

These lecture notes were prepared in occasion of a mini-course given by the author at the "CIMPA Research School - Hamiltonian and Lagrangian Dynamics" (March 10 - 19 2015 - Salto, Uruguay). In this series of talk we illustrated some techniques to prove the existence of periodic orbits of prescribed energy for autonomous Tonelli Lagrangian systems on the twisted cotangent bundle of a closed manifold.
