Bøger af Paul Halmos

Concise and informal as well as systematic, this presentation on the basics of Boolean algebra has ranked among the fundamental books on the subject since its initial publication in 1963.

This book is an informal though systematic series of lectures on Boolean algebras. It contains background chapters on topology and continuous functions and includes hundreds of exercises as well as a solutions manual.

Based on lectures given by the author at the University of Chicago in 1956, this work covers such topics as recurrence, the ergodic theorems, and a general discussion of ergodicity and mixing properties. It is suitable for use for a one-semester course in ergodic theory or for self-study.
