Resumen

  • In this book, which arose from an MSRI research workshop cosponspored by the Clay Mathematical Institute, leading experts give an overview of several areas of dynamical systems that have recently experienced substantial progress. In symplectic geometry, a fast-growing field having its roots in classical mechanics, Cieliebak, Hofer, Latschev and Schlenk give a definitive survey of quantitative techniques and symplectic capacities, which have become a central research tool. Fisher's survey on local rigidity of group actions is a broad and up-to-date account of a flourishing subject built on the fact that for actions of noncyclic groups, topological conjugacy commonly implies smooth conjugacy. Other articles by Eigen, Feres, Kochergin, Krieger, Navarro, Pinto, Prasad, Rand and Robinson cover subjects in hyperbolic, parabolic and symbolic dynamics as well as ergodic theory. Among the specific areas of interest are random walks and billiards, diffeomorphisms and flows on surfaces, amenability and tilings. The articles are complemented by a fifty-page commented problem list, compiled by the editor with the help of numerous specialists. Several sections of this list focus on problems beyond the areas covered in the surveys, and all are sure to inspire and guide further research.
