If there is a dense geodesic, are almost all geodesics equidistributed? Dense?
The first question is false as stated.
By Artin's encoding, geodesics on $SL_{2}(\mathbb{R})/SL_{2}(\mathbb{Z})$ corresponding to continued fractions, and the geodesic flow corresponds to the shift.
I …

Furstenberg $\times 2 \times 3$ conjecture, bibliography
Well that will be some lengthy answer.
The first article that was published after the famous disjointness paper is another paper by Hillel called "Intersections of Cantor sets", it's related to the m …

References on Lie groups and dynamical systems
The connections between Dynamics and Lie Groups (or Algebraic groups) comes mainly in two flavours:
Smooth dynamics, like others have stated Hamiltonian dyanmics and differential equations.

Has dynamics on $G/\Gamma$ ever been used to prove interesting things about $\Gamma$?
There's a nice proof by Margulis showing that arithmetic subgroups are indeed lattices using the famous Dani-Margulis non-divergence theorem.
Actually if you will investigate Ratner's original formula …

rate of equidistribution of the horocycle flow for $SL(2, \mathbb{Z})$
While Peter Humphries' answer is entirely correct for the question asked by the OP, the technique indicated there is far from addressing the most general situation.
The most basic technique towards t …

Examples of transformations that are totally ergodic but not weakly mixing?
Totally ergodic is equivalent to not having rational eigenvalues (I guess a suitable reference for this is Eli's book).
Hence basically the Kronecker factor of such a system will be "essentially" the …

Book recommendation for ergodic theory and/or topological dynamics?
I second Siming Tu's recommendation for E-W book.
It is a well balanced book (regarding theory vs applications), it has nice appendix contains relevant theory from functional analysis, and it contains …

Uniquely ergodicity and polynomial ergodic average
This is indeed true for some "nice systems", for example one can show this theorem (for say $L^{2}$-functions) for Kronecker systems simply by van-der-Corput trick.
In general, those averages converg …

Basic question on minimal flows
Your question is about a theorem of Furstenberg.
About the definitions - obviously every periodic orbit is minimal, if exists, hence in the case the action is minimal, you won't have any periodic orb …

Geodesics on hyperbolic surfaces whose closures have arbitrary Hausdorff dimension
Show that for a Bernoulli system, there exists ergodic (Bernoulli) measures of any given entropy (between 0 and full entropy). Pick such a measure with appropriate entropy as you would like. Recall t …

How to show the geodesic orbit of a badly approximable number are/are not homogeneously equi...
A number is in BA if its orbit is bounded. Any such orbit closure must contain a full $A=\langle g_t\rangle$ orbit. By examining the possible subgroups, any such hypothetical $H$, as a stability group …

Entropy equals zero?
EDIT - The answer below deals with an ergodic m.p.s
As this question got up-voted, I've decided to fuly write a solution, based on the sketch I've made in the comments.
Fix some $\varepsilon>0$ smal …

Some puzzles about the three conditions in a paper of D.Berend
For a start, I guess that one should be very familiar of the proofs of Furstenberg's diophantine result, as this paper generalizes this theorem.
Secondly, it might be of interest that Zhiren Wang in h …
