This can be done in many different ways. Menus are defined in a <menus>
section, within which each menu is defined by a <pgc> tag. (<pgc> is
also used to define a title in a <titles> section.)

I say “many different ways” because a menu <pgc> can contain a <vob>
specifying what video sequence to show, or alternatively it can
specify, via code in a <pre> section, that control should jump
somewhere else instead.

Within the menu <pgc>, you can put one or more <button> directives
specifying where to jump to when the user selects the corresponding
button.

I would put this menu in the <vmgm> section, defining it as <pgc
entry="title">. This way, the “Title/Top Menu” button on your remote
always jumps here.

This menu will have buttons for “Introduction”, “Mathematics” etc which
jump to the corresponding menus.

This menu will contain a button “About” which jumps to the
corresponding title.

And similarly for the other menus.

Of course, all the gory details are spelled out in the man page.
