It is this editor's distinct pleasure to offer to the readership
the text of the lectures presented at our recent NATO Advanced
Study Institute held in Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy between August 6
and August 17, 1984. The invited lectures are printed in their
entirety while the seminar contributions are presented as
abstracts. Our Advanced Study Institutes were originated in 1972
and the reader, familiar with periodic phenomena, so important in
Celestial Mechanics, will easily establish the fact that this
Institute was our fifth one in the series. We dedicated the
Institute to the subject of stability which itself is a humbling
experience since it encompasses all fields of sciences and it is a
basic element of human culture. The many definitions in existence
and their practical applications could easily fill another volume.
It is known in this field that it is easy to deliver lectures or
write papers on stability as long as the definition of stability is
carefully avoided. On the other hand, if one selects a definition,
he might be criticized for using that definition and not another
one. In this volume we carefully defined the specific concept of
stability used in every lecture. If the reader wishes to introduce
other definitions we feel that he should be entirely free and we
encourage him to do so. It is also known that certain sta bility
definitions and concepts are more applicable to certain given
fields than to others."
