Lecture I - An introduction to Lagrangian fibrations

This lecture presents an overview on the whole series, introducing some fundamental concepts in the study of Lagrangian fibrations by means of some examples. Special attention is dedicated to completely integrable Hamiltonian systems, which are a type of mechanical systems that are intimately connected to Lagrangian fibrations. The structure of the cotangent bundle as a Lagrangian fibration (in fact a fibre bundle) is studied, thus illustrating the ideas that lead to the topological and symplectic classification of Lagrangian fibrations.
