Partial Reduction and Delaunay/Deprit Variables

Abstract

Based on a concept link between the partial reduction procedure of the reduction of the rotational symmetry of the N-body problem with the symplectic cross-section theorem of Guillemin-Sternberg, we present alternative proofs of the symplecticity of Delaunay and Deprit coordinates in celestial mechanics.
