Abstract
This is a 2-part introduction to the dynamics of rational surface automorphisms. Such maps can be written in coordinates as rational functions or polynomials. The first part concerns polynomial automorphisms of complex 2-space and includes the complex Henon family.
The second part concerns compact (complex) rational surfaces. The basic properties of automorphisms of positive entropy are given, as well as the construction of invariant currents and measures. This is illustrated by a number of examples.
