The follow-up to the award-winning "Crystal Ships," "Wandering Barques" traces the legacy of the traumatic '60s well into the '70s and '80s.

Twin sisters, just toddlers when their father dies in the Vietnam War, are coming of age in the mid-seventies. They each attempt to compensate for his loss in their own way, and their styles of coping could not be more different. The first strives to forget the past and live in the present, while the second seeks to understand those earlier years and obsesses about the loss of her uncle's girlfriend, a dancer who was tragically killed ten years...

In this book the seminal 1970 Moscow thesis of Grigoriy A. Margulis is published for the first time. Entitled "On Some Aspects of the Theory of Anosov Systems," it uses ergodic theoretic techniques to study the distribution of periodic orbits of Anosov flows. The thesis introduces the "Margulis measure" and uses it to obtain a precise asymptotic formula for counting periodic orbits. This has an immediate application to counting closed geodesics on negatively curved manifolds. The thesis also contains asymptotic formulas for the number of lattice points on universal coverings of compact...
