Minimal Flows and Their Extensions By: Auslander, J. Publisher: North Holland Print ISBN: 9780444704535, 0444704531 eText ISBN: 9780444704535, 9780080872643, 0080872646 Pages: 264 Format: PDF Available from $ 72.95 USD SKU: 9780444704535 This monograph presents developments in the abstract theory of topological dynamics, concentrating on the internal structure of minimal flows (actions of groups on compact Hausdorff spaces for which every orbit is dense) and their homomorphisms (continuous equivariant maps). Various classes of minimal flows (equicontinuous, distal, point distal) are intensively studied, and a general structure theorem is obtained. Another theme is the ``universal'' approach - entire classes of minimal flows are studied, rather than flows in isolation. This leads to the consideration of disjointness of flows, which is a kind of independence condition. Among the topics unique to this book are a proof of the Ellis ``joint continuity theorem'', a characterization of the equicontinuous structure relation, and the aforementioned structure theorem for minimal flows.
