Hi,
I am using symplectic integrators to integrate a set of ode. One 
advantage of these integrators is that some properties are exactly 
preserved at the vertices. Therefore, it may be of interest to look at 
the values of the functions at the vertices. My question is the following:
How do I find the vertices? NDSolve returns only an interpolating 
functions and some symplectic integrators have variable time steps, so 
even if I set the starting step size, I don't have any information on 
the next steps.
Thanks
Vincent
