Connections with other structures. 330 $aThis is the second revised and extended edition of the successful book on the algebraic structure of the Stone-?ech compactification of a discrete semigroup and its combinatorial applications, primarily in the field known as Ramsey Theory. There has been very active research in the subject dealt with by the book in the 12 years which is now included in this edition. This book is a self-contained exposition of the theory of compact right semigroups for discrete semigroups and the algebraic properties of these objects. The methods applied in the book constitute a mosaic of infinite combinatorics, algebra, and topology. The reader will find numerous combinatorial applications of the theory, including the central sets theorem, partition regularity of matrices, multidimensional Ramsey theory, and many more. 410 0$aDe Gruyter textbook. 606 $aStone-C?ech compactification 606 $aTopological semigroups 610 $aErgodic Theory. 610 $aRamsey Theory. 610 $aSemigroup Compactification. 610 $aSemigroup. 610 $aStone-Cech Compactification. 610 $aTopological Dynamics. 615 0$aStone-C?ech compactification. 615 0$aTopological semigroups. 676 $a514/.32 686 $aSK 340$2rvk 700 $aHindman$b Neil$f1943-$01637605 701 $aStrauss$b Dona$f1934-$01637606 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910828883003321 996 $aAlgebra in the Stone-C?ech compactification$93979547 997 $aUNINA
