Book Title
Equilibrium states and the ergodic theory of Anosov diffeomorphisms
Author
Rofus Bowen
Book Description
This small monograph had a very big impact on my research. It shows how certain basic problems in smooth dynamical systems can be simplified by representing the system in a way which exposes the combinatorial structure of its set of orbits. I became aquainted with Bowen's book before starting my Ph.D. I still return to it from time to time.
