商品描述

Ergodic theory provides a powerful lens for understanding dynamical systems, recasting disordered and seemingly random behavior in the language of probability theory. This book offers a concise, rigorous introduction to the subject, suitable both as a graduate-level textbook and as a reference for both pure and applied mathematicians.

    Part I (Chapters 1-7) lays the foundation, covering invariant measures, measure-theoretic isomorphisms, ergodicity, mixing, entropy, and culminating in the Shannon-McMillan-Breiman Theorem. Part II (Chapters 8-13) shifts focus to continuous maps of metric spaces, exploring the collection of invariant measures corresponding to a given map. Part III (Chapters 14-16) presents advanced topics rarely found in textbooks at this level, including SRB measures, their deep connection to entropy and Lyapunov exponents, and extensions to two important settings: random and infinite-dimensional dynamical systems.

Throughout, the authors emphasize not only the mathematical elegance of ergodic theory but also its practical relevance and rich connections to other areas of mathematics, from information theory to stochastic processes.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

遍歷理論提供了一個強大的視角來理解動態系統,將無序和看似隨機的行為重新詮釋為機率論的語言。本書提供了一個簡明而嚴謹的入門介紹,適合作為研究生級別的教科書,也可作為純數學家和應用數學家的參考資料。

第一部分(第1-7章)奠定基礎,涵蓋不變測度、測度理論同構、遍歷性、混合性、熵,並以香農-麥克米倫-布雷曼定理作為高潮。

第二部分(第8-13章)將重點轉向度量空間的連續映射,探討與給定映射對應的不變測度的集合。

第三部分(第14-16章)介紹在此級別的教科書中少見的進階主題,包括SRB測度、它們與熵和利雅普諾夫指數的深刻聯繫,以及擴展到兩個重要的情境:隨機和無限維動態系統。

在整個過程中,作者強調遍歷理論不僅在數學上的優雅性,還有其實際相關性以及與數學其他領域的豐富聯繫,從信息理論到隨機過程。
