Inhaltsangabe

The study of group actions on manifolds is the meeting ground of a variety of mathematical areas. In particular, interesting geometric insights can be obtained by applying measure theoretic techniques. The lecture notes collected here provide an introduction to some of the important methods, major developments, and open problems in the subject. They are slightly expanded from lectures given by the author at a 1998 CBMS Conference held at the University of Minnesota. The main text presents a perspective on the field as it was 10 years ago; comments after the notes of each lecture provide suggestions for further reading, including references to recent developments. Some topics examined are superrigidity and first applications, locally homogeneous spaces, and orbit equivalence. An appendix of background material is included.
