Summary
In this chapter we give the basic concept of the “topological numbers” in the theory of quasiperiodic functions. Attention is especially paid to appearance of such quantities in transport phenomena, including galvanomagnetic phenomena in normal metals (Sect. 2.1) and the modulations of 2D electron gas (Sect. 2.3). We give a detailed introduction to both these areas and explain in a simple way the appearance of the “integral characteristics” in both these problems. Though this chapter cannot be considered a detailed survey in the area, it explains the main basic features of the corresponding phenomena.
