  18. I am looking for references on contact manifolds and their applications in
  19. physical problems, particularly in general relativity.  I am already aware
  20. of their use in time-dependent hamiltonian mechanics.  Are there any other
  21. uses?
  22.  
  23. Please reply by email.  Thanks.
