La symplectification de la science (la géométrie symplectique
aux fondements de la physique et des mathématiques).
(French) [The symplectification of science (symplectic
geometry and the foundations of physics and mathematics)]
Gaz. Math. No. 54 (1992), 59–79.
The authors provide an elementary introduction to symplectic geometry. In the last section they discuss the symplectic language as used
in studying classical and quantum mechanics. The article is intended
for a general audience.
