Thermodynamic Formalism

This volume arose from a semester at CIRM-Luminy on “Thermodynamic Formalism: Applications to Probability, Geometry and Fractals” which brought together leading experts in the area to discuss topical problems and recent progress.  It includes a number of surveys intended to make the field more accessible to younger mathematicians and scientists wishing to learn more about the area.  Thermodynamic formalism has been a powerful tool in ergodic theory and dynamical system and its applicat
