Abstract
We begin this section by setting up the basic terminology and notation to be used in this book. Then we will discuss briefly the main foundational results and other tools that will be used later. Many of these are taken from IPS, so the proofs will often not be given here. Insofar as possible, we will use the notation from IPS. The first part of this section should be read at the outset. The latter material is more special, and can be read when it comes up later. This material appears in roughly the order in which it is used in the rest of the book.
