This volume contains lectures given at the NATO Advanced Study
Institute on Long-Time Predictions in Dynamics conducted in Cortina
d'Ampezzo, Italy during August 3-16, 1975. The lectures were
presented in groups, according to the original structure of the
Institute. Under "Fundamentals" the general concepts were treated
by Contopoulos, DeWitt, Reichl, Stiefel, Szebehely, Bartlett,
Kirchgraber, Verhults and Sigrist. This was followed by the series
of lectures on "Numerical and Statistical Analysis" offered by
Aarseth, Baumgarte and Tapley. The third principal subject was
"Three and Many-Body Problems" with Garfinkel, Broucke,
Hadjidemetriou, Marchal, Nahon, Waldvogel, Lasco, and Markellos as
the major speakers. The last group of lectures treated "Dynamics in
Astronomy" by Colombo, Message, Ovenden, Vicente, and Douglas. Some
of the outstanding lectures were rather didactic in nature or were
published elsewhere or could not meet the deadline for publication.
The Editors will be delighted to furnish leads to those interested
in these lectures. Some of the lectures were presented in form of
seminar-contributions. These are published as Summaries at the end
of this Volume. The Institute was dedicated to the conceptual,
analytical, numerical and applied aspects of the problem of
long-time predic tion in dynamics. This fundamental problem emerged
in all lectures: linearization, regularization, stabilization,
averaging, estimation, periodic orbits, qualitative aspects,
secular variations, resonance, invariants, etc. were some of the
subjects treated in depth. Some conclusions are offered here with
the utmost humility and with the advance acknowledgement of the
fact that we all hear what we want to hear."
