{"product_id":"cantor-minimal-systems","title":"Cantor Minimal Systems","description":"Within the subject of topological dynamics, there has been considerable recent interest in systems where the underlying topological space is a Cantor set. Such systems have an inherently combinatorial nature, and seminal ideas of Anatoly Vershik allowed for a combinatorial model, called the Bratteli-Vershik model, for such systems with no non-trivial closed invariant subsets. This model led to a construction of an ordered abelian group which is an algebraic invariant of the system providing a complete classification of such systems up to orbit equivalence.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe goal of this book is to give a statement of this classification result and to develop ideas and techniques leading to it. Rather than being a comprehensive treatment of the area, this book is aimed at students and researchers trying to learn about some surprising connections between dynamics and algebra. The only background material needed is a basic course in group theory and a basic course in general topology.","brand":"American Mathematical Society","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54282693280088,"sku":null,"price":71.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781470441159.jpg?v=1781002853","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/cantor-minimal-systems","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
