Considering a Hamiltonian Dynamical System describing the motion of charged particle in a Tokamak or a Stellarator, we build a change of coordinates to reduce its dimension. This change of coordinates is in fact an intricate succession of mappings that are built using Hyperbolic Partial Differential Equations, Differential Geometry, Hamiltonian Dynamical System Theory and Symplectic Geometry, Lie Transforms and a new tool which is here introduced : Partial Lie Sums.
Keywords: Hyperbolic Partial Differential Equations, Differential Geometry, Stellarator, Partial Lie Sums., Lie Transforms, Tokamak, Gyro-Kinetic Approximation, Hamiltonian Dynamical System Theory, Symplectic Geometry.
Mathematics Subject Classification: Primary: 58Z05, 58J37, 58J45; Secondary: 82D1.
