In recent years there has been a growing interest in the interactions between descriptive set theory and various aspects of the theory of dynamical systems, including ergodic theory and topological dynamics. This volume, first published in 2000, contains a collection of survey papers by leading researchers covering a wide variety of recent developments in these subjects and their interconnections. This book provides researchers and graduate students interested in either of these areas with a guide to work done in the other, as well as with an introduction to problems and research directions arising from their interconnections.
- Written by leading researchers in the fields of descriptive set theory and dynamical systems
- Discusses the recent developments in these subjects and covers the possible interconnections between the two
- Provides graduates and researchers in one of these areas with an introduction and guide to work done in the other
