On a product formula for the Conley--Zehnder index of symplectic paths and its applications
Maurice de Gosson, Serge de Gosson, Paolo Piccione
Abstract
Using invariance by fixed-endpoints homotopies and a generalized notion of symplectic Cayley transform, we prove a product formula for the Conley--Zehnder index of continuous paths with arbitrary endpoints in the symplectic group. We discuss two applications of the formula, to the metaplectic group and to periodic solutions of Hamiltonian systems.
