More about the book
The book delves into the concept of recurrence within dynamical systems, focusing on orbits that return to their initial neighborhoods with prescribed frequency. It introduces the idea of syndetic subsets to measure return times in both continuous and discrete systems. The author explores the calculus of families, building on Furstenberg's work in dynamics and combinatorial number theory. Subsequent chapters apply this family framework to discuss advanced topics such as topological transitivity, distality, and rigidity, laying a comprehensive foundation for these concepts.
