Homogeneous dynamics: a study guide

Einsiedler, Manfred; Ward, Thomas

Abstract

These notes give a summary of the course ‘Ergodic theory and Applications in Number Theory’ at the Summer School in Modern Mathematics at the Tsinghua University in Beijing, June 23–27 (2013). As in the Summer school, we will need to be brief at times and refer to the references for a detailed treatment. Nonetheless we wish to survey some results and ideas on a close to geodesic journey from the most basic concepts of ergodic theory to some more sophisticated and recent results in homogeneous dynamics.
