Abstract

This chapter presents the basic mathematical framework for classical mechanics of a spin system. Practically all the material in the introductory section below can be found in basic textbooks on classical mechanics and we refer to some of these, e.g. [1, 5, 34, 37, 48], for the reader not yet too familiar with the subject, or for further details, examples, etc. (Ref. [34] is more familiar to physicists, while the others are more mathematical and closer in style to our brief introduction below). Our emphasis here is to provide a self-contained presentation of the SO(3)-invariant decomposition of the pointwise product and the Poisson bracket of polynomials, which are not easily found elsewhere (specially the latter).
