Description for Ergodic Theory, Hyperbolic Dynamics and Dimension Theory
Paperback. This book offers a unified introduction to the interplay of ergodic theory, hyperbolic dynamics, and dimension theory. Coverage includes intermediate level ergodic theory, thermodynamic formalism, or dimension theory of hyperbolic dynamics. Series: Universitext. Num Pages: 290 pages, 34 black & white illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: PBWR. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 17. Weight in Grams: 466.
Over the last two decades, the dimension theory of dynamical systems has progressively developed into an independent and extremely active field of research. The main aim of this volume is to offer a unified, self-contained introduction to the interplay of these three main areas of research: ergodic theory, hyperbolic dynamics, and dimension theory. It starts with the basic notions of the first two topics and ends with a sufficiently high-level introduction to the third. Furthermore, it includes an introduction to the thermodynamic formalism, which is an important tool in dimension theory. The volume is primarily intended ... Read more

Reviews for Ergodic Theory, Hyperbolic Dynamics and Dimension Theory
From the reviews: This book gives an introduction to the fundamental ideas and results in the study of dynamical systems that lie at the interface of ergodic theory, thermodynamic formalism, hyperbolic dynamics, and dimension theory. It is targeted at readers, particularly graduate students, who are familiar with the general theory of measure and integration ... . ... Read more
