The group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms Ham(M, 0) of a symplectic mani­ fold (M, 0) plays a fundamental role both in geometry and classical mechanics. They turn out to be very different from the usual circle of problems considered in symplectic topology and thus extend significantly our vision of the symplectic world.
