Recurrence in Ergodic Theory and Combinatorial Number Theory
@inproceedings{Furstenberg2014RecurrenceIE, title={Recurrence in Ergodic Theory and Combinatorial Number Theory}, author={Harry Furstenberg}, year={2014} }
Topological dynamics and ergodic theory usually have been treated independently. H. Furstenberg, instead, develops the common ground between them by applying the modern theory of dynamical systems to combinatories and number theory.Originally published in 1981.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These paperback editions preserve the original…

Since Furstenberg’s proof of Szemerédi’s theorem in the 1970s a mutually beneficial relationship has blossomed between ergodic theory and density Ramsey theory. In this thesis we contribute to this…
Multiple recurrence and finding patterns in dense sets

Central topics such as Hausdorff dimension, self-similar sets and Brownian motion are introduced, as are more specialized topics, including Kakeya sets, capacity, percolation on trees and the traveling salesman theorem.
Direct and inverse results for popular differences in trees of positive dimension
