"In a very general sense modern theory of smooth dynamical systems deals with smooth actions of "sufficiently large but not too large" groups or semigroups (usually locally compact but not compact) on a "sufficiently small" phase space (usually compact, or, sometimes, finite volume manifolds). Important branches of dynamics specifically consider actions preserving a geometric structure with an infinite-dimensional group of automorphisms, two principal examples being a volume and a symplectic structure. The natural equivalence relation for actions is differentiable (corr. volume preserving or symplectic) conjugacy"-- Provided by publisher.
