From the Reviews: "Gihman and Skorohod have done an excellent job of presenting the theory in its present state of rich imperfection." --D.W. Stroock, Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society, 1980
No detailed description available for "Exploring Stochastic Laws".
Collecting together selected pioneering works of the celebrated mathematician Anatolii V. Skorokhod, this volume serves as a guide to the theory of stochastic processes from its beginning to its current state. It offers both an excellent bibliographic resource and a unique opportunity for readers to gain a better understanding of Skorokhod’s original and beautiful ideas, which had a deep impact on the development of the subject. The modern theory of stochastic processes is a fast-growing branch of probability theory which is now an independent science in its own right, with its own methods and philosophy. It has many applications in various fields, including financial mathematics, quantum physics and engineering. A clear understanding of this theory is impossible without knowledge of the ideas which form its base, many of which are due to Skorokhod. The book is intended for a broad audience of researchers and students with an interest in probability theory, stochastic processes and their applications.
It was originally planned that the Theory of Stochastic Processes would consist of two volumes: the first to be devoted to general problems and the second to specific cJasses of random processes. It became apparent, however, that the amount of material related to specific problems of the theory could not possibly be incJuded in one volume. This is how the present third volume came into being. This voJume contains the theory of martingales, stochastic integrals, stochastic differential equations, diffusion, and continuous Markov processes. The theory of stochastic processes is an actively developing branch of mathe matics, and it would be an unreasonable and impossible task to attempt to enco...
Three-part treatment introduces basics plus theory of stochastic differential equations and various limit theorems connected with convergence of sequence of Markov chains to Markov process with continuous time. 1965 edition.
Stochastic differential equations whose solutions are diffusion (or other random) processes have been the subject of lively mathematical research since the pioneering work of Gihman, Ito and others in the early fifties. As it gradually became clear that a great number of real phenomena in control theory, physics, biology, economics and other areas could be modelled by differential equations with stochastic perturbation terms, this research became somewhat feverish, with the results that a) the number of theroretical papers alone now numbers several hundred and b) workers interested in the field (especially from an applied viewpoint) have had no opportunity to consult a systematic account. Th...
Rigorous exposition suitable for elementary instruction. Covers measure theory, axiomatization of probability theory, processes with independent increments, Markov processes and limit theorems for random processes, more. A wealth of results, ideas, and techniques distinguish this text. Introduction. Bibliography. 1969 edition.
From the Reviews: "To call this work encyclopedic would not give an accurate picture of its content and style. Some parts read like a textbook, but others are more technical and contain relatively new results. ... The exposition is robust and explicit, as one has come to expect of the Russian tradition of mathematical writing." --K.L. Chung, American Scientist, 1977
The theory of controlled processes is one of the most recent mathematical theories to show very important applications in modern engineering, parti cularly for constructing automatic control systems, as well as for problems of economic control. However, actual systems subject to control do not admit a strictly deterministic analysis in view of random factors of various kinds which influence their behavior. Such factors include, for example, random noise occurring in the electrical system, variations in the supply and demand of commodities, fluctuations in the labor force in economics, and random failures of components on an automated line. The theory of con trolled processes takes the random...
