An introduction to semi-classical mechanics
Summary: This text is an introduction to semi-classical mechanics for non-specialists. After reminding the setup of classical mechanics (symplectic geometry) and of quantum mechanics, semi-classical mechanics is introduced in terms of simple examples: Fourier and Legendre transformations, Huygens' principle. Then the semi-classical trace formulas are described, as well as the set of problems of quantum chaos.
