The book contains papers both reviewing the state of art in Topics (i)-(v) and dealing with recent results of current research in these topics. The first 8 papers (pp. 1-170) belong to Topic (i). In the first one Sym-plecticity, reversibility and elliptic operators, pp. 1-20, by T. J. Bridges, the concepts o f symplecticity and reversibility are generalised and then used in analysis of some gradient elliptic operators on Mn. In the paper The rolling disc, pp. 21-60, by R. Cushman, J. Hermans and D. Kemppainen, a homogeneous disc, which rolls without slipping on a horizontal plane under the vertical gravitational force field, is considered. Due to some symmetries, the problem is reduced to a four dimensional dynamical system. A rigorous qualitative description o f the dynamics of this system is provided (both periodic and non-periodic orbits are described).
