In these Lecture Notes of a mini-course delivered in the " Séminaire Itinérant
de Géometrie et Physique Mathématique, " Geometry and Physics V" at the
University Cheikh Anta Diop, Dakar in May 2007, we introduce the group of
symplectic diffeomorphisms, the main results on its algebraic structure and on
some of its local and global properties. This survey culminates with the most
recent results on Hofer geometry, the definitions of the groups of symplectic
and hamiltonian homeomorphisms, and the introduction to the $C^0$ symplectic
topology.
