| - | Needed for the semi-classical helium chapter, and for desymmetrization chapters, where coordinate changes are one way to map an equivariant flow into an invariantflow. Currently does not fit into the flow of the ChaosBook. --- //[[predrag.cvitanovic@physics.gatech.edu|Predrag Cvitanovic]] 2009-03-10// | + | {{gtspring2009:pc.jpg}} Gregor, if you move helium section to [[chaosbook:newton|chapter "Hamiltonian dynamics"]] why don't you also start [[chaosbook:howto:proofreading|editing/rewriting this chapter]] too --- //[[predrag.cvitanovic@physics.gatech.edu|Predrag Cvitanovic]] 2009-03-29// |
| - | Nonlinear coordinate transformations are very important but we do not use them much | + | {{:gtspring2009:gt.png|}} This chapter doesn't really fit in nicely. It is split into three different parts with 6.1, 6.2 and 6.4, 6.5, 6.6 fitting together nicely and [[:chaosbook:conjug#sectioncollinear_helium|6.3 "Collinear helium"]] sitting somewhat uncomfortably in the middle. --- //[[gregor.tanner@nottingham.ac.uk|Gregor Tanner]] 2009-3-26// |
| - | in ChaosBook. This chapter collects in one place all that we will need. It is meant to be omitted on first reading, sections of it read later, when need arises. | + | |
| + | Re. 6.X (X.ne.3), I am not sure whether the rest of the material makes a full chapter and is at the right place - it is after all quite advanced material for somebody who just got his/her head round cycle stabilities. One could of course always send it into the abyss of becoming appendicised, but there is too much nice stuff in the chapter for that. | ||

| + | {{:gtspring2009:gt.png|}} I suggest integrating this section, "Rectification of flows" and "Rectification of maps" into one, currently [[:chaosbook:conjug#sectionrectification_of_maps|6.4 "Rectification of maps"]]. After all linearizing the flow is the first order term - so one could introduce it as a generalization of the methods taught previously. --- //[[gregor.tanner@nottingham.ac.uk|Gregor Tanner]] 2009-3-26// | ||

| - | regularize the 2-body Coulomb collisions in classical helium. | + | {{gtspring2009:pc.jpg}} If you want to move it to the end of [[chaosbook:newton|chapter "Hamiltonian dynamics"]], it is OK with me. I would place it ahead of Section 7.4 "Poincaré invariants," which is of narrower interest. Originally it was there, but it did not make sense without defining smooth coordinate transformations first. If you harmonize it with this chapter, might work well. BTW, almost any cojugacy is singular somewhere. For example, if you try to flatten out a neighborhood of a fixed or periodic point, the conjugacy has at best a finite radius of convergence. --- //[[predrag.cvitanovic@physics.gatech.edu|Predrag Cvitanovic]] 2009-03-29// |
| + | |||
| + | {{:gtspring2009:gt.png|}} While I see the idea behind trying to match KS regularization with smooth conjugacy, I am not sure it works well. Collinear helium is singular (and you want smooth flows to start with), the transformation involves time (which is a new concept at that point), and one of the main points of the KS transformation is that the combination of time and space transformation keeps everything Hamiltonian (a point which comes too early here). In addition, this text was written with the helium quantization chapter, so it needs to be rewritten further. | ||
| + | |||
| + | I would move this section to the end of [[chaosbook:newton|chapter "Hamiltonian dynamics"]] and work out the connection to Hamiltonian dynamics and regularization/smooth conjugacies there. --- //[[gregor.tanner@nottingham.ac.uk|Gregor Tanner]] 2009-3-26// | ||

Remarks within the text that state something but do not explain it do not belong to a textbook; if you cannot explain the material, best not to include it. Or make this 3rd subsection of [[:chaosbook:conjug#sectionrectification_of_maps|"Rectification of maps"]]. --- //[[predrag.cvitanovic@physics.gatech.edu|Predrag Cvitanovic]] 2009-03-29// |

Remember, each chapter should be not bigger than what you can cover in 1 - 1 1/2 hours lecture. Try again. --- //[[predrag.cvitanovic@physics.gatech.edu|Predrag Cvitanovic]] 2009-03-29// |
