Resumen de A review on contact hamiltonian and lagrangian systems

Manuel de León , Manuel Lainz

• Contact Hamiltonian dynamics is a subject that has still a short history, but with relevant applications in many areas: therodinamics, cosmology, control theory, and neurogeometry, amoug of others. In recent years there has been a great effort to study this type of dynamics both in the theoretical aspects and in its potencial applications in geometric mechanics and mathematical physics . This paper is intended to be a rewiew of some of the resuslts that the authors and their collaborators have recently obtaines on the subject .
