Symbolic dynamics is a mature yet quickly developing area of dynamical systems. It has established strong connections with several areas, including graph theory, probability, linear algebra, group theory, and the theory of computation, in addition to data storage, statistical mechanics, and $C^*$-algebras. An Introduction to Symbolic Dynamics and Coding, 2nd Edition, (PDF) upholds the introductory character of the original 1995 edition as a general textbook on symbolic dynamics and its uses to coding. It is written at a basic level and targeted at students, well-established researchers, and experts in electrical engineering, mathematics, and computer science. Topics are thoroughly developed and motivated with many illustrative examples. There are over 500 exercises to test the reader’s understanding. Along with a chapter in the First Edition on advanced topics and a complete bibliography, the updated Second Edition includes a comprehensive Addendum, with a companion bibliography, explaining major developments and new research directions since the publication of the First Edition.
