Mauldin R. Graph Directed Markov Systems...2003

Textbook in PDF format

The main focus of this book is on the development of the theory of Graph Directed Markov Systems. This far-reaching generalization of the theory of conformal iterated systems can be applied in many situations, including the theory of dynamical systems. Dan Mauldin and Mariusz Urbanski include much of the necessary background material to increase the appeal of this book to graduate students as well as researchers. They also include an extensive list of references for further reading
