Book Recurrence in Ergodic Theory and Combinatorial Number Theory

Download or read book Recurrence in Ergodic Theory and Combinatorial Number Theory written by Harry Furstenberg and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Topological dynamics and ergodic theory usually have been treated independently. H. Furstenberg, instead, develops the common ground between them by applying the modern theory of dynamical systems to combinatories and number theory. Originally published in 1981. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Book Recurrence and Topology

Download or read book Recurrence and Topology written by John M. Alongi and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2007 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since at least the time of Poisson, mathematicians have pondered the notion of recurrence for differential equations. Solutions that exhibit recurrent behavior provide insight into the behavior of general solutions. In Recurrence and Topology, Alongi and Nelson provide a modern understanding of the subject, using the language and tools of dynamical systems and topology. Recurrence and Topology develops increasingly more general topological modes of recurrence for dynamical systems beginning with fixed points and concluding with chain recurrent points.

Book Recurrence in Topological Dynamics

Download or read book Recurrence in Topological Dynamics written by Ethan Akin and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the long run of a dynamical system, after transient phenomena have passed away, what remains is recurrence. An orbit is recurrent when it returns repeatedly to each neighborhood of its initial position. We can sharpen the concept by insisting that the returns occur with at least some prescribed frequency. For example, an orbit lies in some minimal subset if and only if it returns almost periodically to each neighborhood of the initial point. That is, each return time set is a so-called syndetic subset ofT= the positive reals (continuous time system) or T = the positive integers (discrete time system). This is a prototype for many of the results in this book. In particular, frequency is measured by membership in a family of subsets of the space modeling time, in this case the family of syndetic subsets of T. In applying dynamics to combinatorial number theory, Furstenberg introduced a large number of such families. Our first task is to describe explicitly the calculus of families implicit in Furstenberg's original work and in the results which have proliferated since. There are general constructions on families, e. g. , the dual of a family and the product of families. Other natural constructions arise from a topology or group action on the underlying set. The foundations are laid, in perhaps tedious detail, in Chapter 2. The family machinery is then applied in Chapters 3 and 4 to describe family versions of recurrence, topological transitivity, distality and rigidity.

Book Topological Dynamical Systems

Download or read book Topological Dynamical Systems written by Jan Vries and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2014-01-31 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is no recent elementary introduction to the theory of discrete dynamical systems that stresses the topological background of the topic. This book fills this gap: it deals with this theory as 'applied general topology'. We treat all important concepts needed to understand recent literature. The book is addressed primarily to graduate students. The prerequisites for understanding this book are modest: a certain mathematical maturity and course in General Topology are sufficient.

Book The General Topology of Dynamical Systems

Download or read book The General Topology of Dynamical Systems written by Ethan Akin and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1993 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent work in dynamical systems theory has both highlighted certain topics in the pre-existing subject of topological dynamics (such as the construction of Lyapunov functions and various notions of stability) and also generated new concepts and results. This book collects these results, both old and new, and organises them into a natural foundation for all aspects of dynamical systems theory.

Book Topological and Symbolic Dynamics

Download or read book Topological and Symbolic Dynamics written by Petr Kůrka and published by Société Mathématique de France. This book was released on 2003 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A dynamical system is a continuous self-map of a compact metric space. Topological dynamics studies the iterations of such a map, or equivalently, the trajectories of points of the state space. The basic concepts of topological dynamics are minimality, transitivity, recurrence, shadowing property, stability, equicontinuity, sensitivity, attractors, and topological entropy. Symbolic dynamics studies dynamical systems whose state spaces are zero-dimensional and consist of sequences of symbols. The main classes of symbolic dynamical systems are adding machines, subshifts of finite type, sofic subshifts, Sturmian, substitutive and Toeplitz subshifts, and cellular automata.

Book Topological Dynamical Systems

Download or read book Topological Dynamical Systems written by Jan Vries and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an introduction into the theory of discrete dynamical systems with emphasis on the topological background. It is addressed primarily to graduate students. The prerequisites for understanding this book are modest: a certain mathematical maturity and a course in General Topology are sufficient. Students who have mastered this book will have a firm basis to start research on related topics. The theory is about the behaviour of points of a Hausdorff space under the iteration of a continuous self-map. The assumption that the space is metrizable is avoided as much as possible, but where the non-metric version of the theory would become unwieldy we do not hesitate to assume metrizability. A similar remark applies to the assumption of compactness of the space. Much attention is given to dynamical systems on intervals on the real line. A wide range of topics, such as asymptotic stability, shift systems, (chain-)recurrence, topological entropy and chaos, is discussed. Every chapter concludes with a set of exercises and a section of notes, with references to the literature.

Book Topological Dynamics and Applications

Download or read book Topological Dynamics and Applications written by Robert Ellis and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1998 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a very readable exposition of the modern theory of topological dynamics and presents diverse applications to such areas as ergodic theory, combinatorial number theory and differential equations. There are three parts: 1) The abstract theory of topological dynamics is discussed, including a comprehensive survey by Furstenberg and Glasner on the work and influence of R. Ellis. Presented in book form for the first time are new topics in the theory of dynamical systems, such as weak almost-periodicity, hidden eigenvalues, a natural family of factors and topological analogues of ergodic decomposition. 2) The power of abstract techniques is demonstrated by giving a very wide range of applications to areas of ergodic theory, combinatorial number theory, random walks on groups and others. 3) Applications to non-autonomous linear differential equations are shown. Exposition on recent results about Floquet theory, bifurcation theory and Lyapanov exponents is given.

The final cluster of chapters discusses partial differential equations from the point of view of dynamical systems.

Book Randomness and Recurrence in Dynamical Systems  A Real Analysis Approach

Download or read book Randomness and Recurrence in Dynamical Systems A Real Analysis Approach written by Rodney Nillsen and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2010-12-31 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Randomness and Recurrence in Dynamical Systems aims to bridge a gap between undergraduate teaching and the research level in mathematical analysis. It makes ideas on averaging, randomness, and recurrence, which traditionally require measure theory, accessible at the undergraduate and lower graduate level. The author develops new techniques of proof and adapts known proofs to make the material accessible to students with only a background in elementary real analysis. Over 60 figures are used to explain proofs, provide alternative viewpoints and elaborate on the main text. The book explains further developments in terms of measure theory. The results are presented in the context of dynamical systems, and the quantitative results are related to the underlying qualitative phenomena—chaos, randomness, recurrence and order. The final part of the book introduces and motivates measure theory and the notion of a measurable set, and describes the relationship of Birkhoff's Individual Ergodic Theorem to the preceding ideas. Developments in other dynamical systems are indicated, in particular Lévy's result on the frequency of occurence of a given digit in the partial fractions expansion of a number.

Book Elements of Topological Dynamics

Download or read book Elements of Topological Dynamics written by J. de Vries and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-17 with total page 762 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is designed as an introduction into what I call 'abstract' Topological Dynamics (TO): the study of topological transformation groups with respect to problems that can be traced back to the qualitative theory of differential equa is in the tradition of the books [GH] and [EW. The title tions. So this book (,Elements . . . ' rather than 'Introduction . . . ') does not mean that this book should be compared, either in scope or in (intended) impact, with the 'Ele ments' of Euclid or Bourbaki. Instead, it reflects the choice and organisation of the material in this book: elementary and basic (but sufficient to understand recent research papers in this field). There are still many challenging prob lems waiting for a solution, and especially among general topologists there is a growing interest in this direction. However, the technical inaccessability of many research papers makes it almost impossible for an outsider to under stand what is going on. To a large extent, this inaccessability is caused by the lack of a good and systematic exposition of the fundamental methods and techniques of abstract TO. This book is an attempt to fill this gap. The guiding principle for the organization of the material in this book has been the exposition of methods and techniques rather than a discussion of the leading problems and their solutions. though the latter are certainly not neglected: they are used as a motivation wherever possible.

  • ISBN : 0857290215
  • Pages : 486 pages

Download or read book Ergodic Theory written by Manfred Einsiedler and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-09-11 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text is a rigorous introduction to ergodic theory, developing the machinery of conditional measures and expectations, mixing, and recurrence. Beginning by developing the basics of ergodic theory and progressing to describe some recent applications to number theory, this book goes beyond the standard texts in this topic. Applications include Weyl's polynomial equidistribution theorem, the ergodic proof of Szemeredi's theorem, the connection between the continued fraction map and the modular surface, and a proof of the equidistribution of horocycle orbits. Ergodic Theory with a view towards Number Theory will appeal to mathematicians with some standard background in measure theory and functional analysis. No background in ergodic theory or Lie theory is assumed, and a number of exercises and hints to problems are included, making this the perfect companion for graduate students and researchers in ergodic theory, homogenous dynamics or number theory.

Book Topological Dynamics of Enveloping Semigroups

Download or read book Topological Dynamics of Enveloping Semigroups written by Anima Nagar and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-01-01 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces the theory of enveloping semigroups—an important tool in the field of topological dynamics—introduced by Robert Ellis. The book deals with the basic theory of topological dynamics and touches on the advanced concepts of the dynamics of induced systems and their enveloping semigroups. All the chapters in the book are well organized and systematically dealing with introductory topics through advanced research topics. The basic concepts give the motivation to begin with, then the theory, and finally the new research-oriented topics. The results are presented with detailed proof, plenty of examples and several open questions are put forward to motivate for future research. Some of the results, related to the enveloping semigroup, are new to the existing literature. The enveloping semigroups of the induced systems is considered for the first time in the literature, and some new results are obtained. The book has a research-oriented flavour in the field of topological dynamics.
