Description

Book Synopsis
Assuming only a basic knowledge of manifolds theory, algebra, and measure theory, this 1998 book is a systematic and largely self-contained introduction to Margulis-Zimmer theory. It should appeal to anyone interested in Lie theory, differential geometry and dynamical systems.
