This book contains the lectures given at the Second Conference on Dynamics and Randomness held at the Centro de Modelamiento Matemàtico of the Universidad de Chile, from December 9-13, 2003. This meeting brought together mathematicians, theoretical physicists, theoretical computer scientists, and graduate students interested in fields related to probability theory, ergodic theory, symbolic and topological dynamics. The courses were on: -Some Aspects of Random Fragmentations in Continuous Times; -Metastability of Ageing in Stochastic Dynamics; -Algebraic Systems of Generating Functions and Return Probabilities for Random Walks; -Recurrent Measures and Measure Rigidity; -Stochastic Particle Approximations for Two-Dimensional Navier Stokes Equations; and -Random and Universal Metric Spaces. The intended audience for this book is Ph.D. students on Probability and Ergodic Theory as well as researchers in these areas. The particular interest of this book is the broad areas of problems that it covers. We have chosen six main topics and asked six experts to give an introductory course on the subject touching the latest advances on each problem.Maass, Alejandro is the author of 'Dynamics And Randomness II', published 2004 under ISBN 9781402019906 and ISBN 1402019904.
