Abstract
Here I propose to cosnsider classical autonomous systems with f degrees of freedom and 2 f pairs of canonical variables p i , q i . We shall meet with invariant tori, caustics, and Maslov indices and proceed to the semiclassical torus quantization à la Einstein, Brillouin and Keller (EBK) and its modern variant, a periodic-orbit theory.
