Descripton

These volumes collect most of the papers of Anatole Katok, one of the founders of the modern theory of dynamical systems. Katok s work re ects hal a centur o research in mathematcs and includes ergodic theor , h perbolic, elliptc, and parabolic smooth d namics, as well as higher rank actons. Katok s papers cover an e tremel broad range o topics in d namics, and the contain man seminal contributons that had great impact on later developments and are now widel recogni ed as classical.

Katok also authored numerous historical and biographical papers, and these contain accounts o crucial developments rom the point o view o one o the main protagonists.

esides papers which have alread appeared in academic ournals, this collecton includes several previousl unpublished papers as well as some whose English translaton appears here or the frst tme.
