Description for Dynamical Systems of Algebraic Origin (Modern Birkhäuser Classics)
Paperback. This book introduces a class of continuous Zd-actions diverse enough to exhibit many of the new phenomena encountered in the transition from Z to Zd, but which lends itself to systematic study: the Zd-actions by automorphisms of compact, abelian groups. Series: Modern Birkhauser Classics. Num Pages: 310 pages, 1 black & white illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: PBG; PBKB; PBMW; PBT. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 234 x 176 x 18. Weight in Grams: 488. Series: Modern Birkhauser Classics. 330 pages, black & white illustrations.

Although much of classical ergodic theory is concerned with single transformations and one-parameter flows, the subject inherits from statistical mechanics not only its name, but also an obligation to analyze spatially extended systems with multidimensional symmetry groups. However, the wealth of concrete and natural examples which has contributed so much to the appeal and development of classical dynamics, is noticeably absent in this more general theory. The purpose of this book is to help remedy this scarcity of explicit examples by introducing a class of continuous Zd-actions diverse enough to exhibit many of the new phenomena encountered in the transition ...
