Arnold conjectured that the number of fixed points of a Hamiltonian diffeomorphism on a closed symplectic manifold M must (generically) be at least as large as the minimal number of critical points of a Morse function on M. We will give a brief introduction to Hamiltonian dynamics and symplectic geometry. Then we will review some of the known cases of the Arnold conjecture and sketch their proofs.
