Ultrafilters: Where topological dynamics = algebra = combinatorics

Andreas Blass

Published 1993-09-08Version 1

We survey some connections between topological dynamics, semigroups of ultrafilters, and combinatorics. As an application, we give a proof, based on ideas of Bergelson and Hindman, of the Hales-Jewett partition theorem.
