This definitive synthesis of mathematician Gregory Margulis's
research brings together leading experts to cover the breadth and
diversity of disciplines Margulis's work touches upon. This edited
collection highlights the foundations and evolution of research by
widely influential Fields Medalist Gregory Margulis. Margulis is
unusual in the degree to which his solutions to particular problems
have opened new vistas of mathematics; his ideas were central, for
example, to developments that led to the recent Fields Medals of
Elon Lindenstrauss and Maryam Mirzhakhani. Dynamics, Geometry,
Number Theory introduces these areas, their development, their use
in current research, and the connections between them. Divided into
four broad sections-"Arithmeticity, Superrigidity, Normal
Subgroups"; "Discrete Subgroups"; "Expanders, Representations,
Spectral Theory"; and "Homogeneous Dynamics"-the chapters have all
been written by the foremost experts on each topic with a view to
making them accessible both to graduate students and to experts in
other parts of mathematics. This was no simple feat: Margulis's
work stands out in part because of its depth, but also because it
brings together ideas from different areas of mathematics. Few can
be experts in all of these fields, and this diversity of ideas can
make it challenging to enter Margulis's area of research. Dynamics,
Geometry, Number Theory provides one remedy to that challenge.
