An Introduction to Stochastic Modeling
Author: Howard M. Taylor
Publisher: Academic Press
ISBN: 1483269272
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 410
Book Description
An Introduction to Stochastic Modeling provides information pertinent to the standard concepts and methods of stochastic modeling. This book presents the rich diversity of applications of stochastic processes in the sciences. Organized into nine chapters, this book begins with an overview of diverse types of stochastic models, which predicts a set of possible outcomes weighed by their likelihoods or probabilities. This text then provides exercises in the applications of simple stochastic analysis to appropriate problems. Other chapters consider the study of general functions of independent, identically distributed, nonnegative random variables representing the successive intervals between renewals. This book discusses as well the numerous examples of Markov branching processes that arise naturally in various scientific disciplines. The final chapter deals with queueing models, which aid the design process by predicting system performance. This book is a valuable resource for students of engineering and management science. Engineers will also find this book useful.

Essentials of Stochastic Processes
Author: Richard Durrett
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319456148
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 282
Book Description
Building upon the previous editions, this textbook is a first course in stochastic processes taken by undergraduate and graduate students (MS and PhD students from math, statistics, economics, computer science, engineering, and finance departments) who have had a course in probability theory. It covers Markov chains in discrete and continuous time, Poisson processes, renewal processes, martingales, and option pricing. One can only learn a subject by seeing it in action, so there are a large number of examples and more than 300 carefully chosen exercises to deepen the reader’s understanding. Drawing from teaching experience and student feedback, there are many new examples and problems with solutions that use TI-83 to eliminate the tedious details of solving linear equations by hand, and the collection of exercises is much improved, with many more biological examples. Originally included in previous editions, material too advanced for this first course in stochastic processes has been eliminated while treatment of other topics useful for applications has been expanded. In addition, the ordering of topics has been improved; for example, the difficult subject of martingales is delayed until its usefulness can be applied in the treatment of mathematical finance.

Probability Theory and Stochastic Processes with Applications (Second Edition)
Author: Oliver Knill
Publisher: World Scientific Publishing Company
ISBN: 9789813109490
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 500
Book Description
This second edition has a unique approach that provides a broad and wide introduction into the fascinating area of probability theory. It starts on a fast track with the treatment of probability theory and stochastic processes by providing short proofs. The last chapter is unique as it features a wide range of applications in other fields like Vlasov dynamics of fluids, statistics of circular data, singular continuous random variables, Diophantine equations, percolation theory, random Schrödinger operators, spectral graph theory, integral geometry, computer vision, and processes with high risk.Many of these areas are under active investigation and this volume is highly suited for ambitious undergraduate students, graduate students and researchers.

Stochastic Systems in Merging Phase Space
Author: Vladimir Semenovich Koroli?uk
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9812565914
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 348
Book Description
This book provides recent results on the stochastic approximation of systems by weak convergence techniques. General and particular schemes of proofs for average, diffusion, and Poisson approximations of stochastic systems are presented, allowing one to simplify complex systems and obtain numerically tractable models.The systems discussed in the book include stochastic additive functionals, dynamical systems, stochastic integral functionals, increment processes and impulsive processes. All these systems are switched by Markov and semi-Markov processes whose phase space is considered in asymptotic split and merging schemes. Most of the results from semi-Markov processes are new and presented for the first time in this book.

The Extended Stochastic Integral In Linear Spaces With Differentiable Measures And Related Topics
Author: Nicolai Victorovich Norin
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9814499307
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
This volume discusses the extended stochastic integral (ESI) (or Skorokhod-Hitsuda Integral) and its relation to the logarithmic derivative of differentiable measure along the vector or operator field. In addition, the theory of surface measures and the theory of heat potentials in infinite-dimensional spaces are discussed. These theories are closely related to ESI.It starts with an account of classic stochastic analysis in the Wiener spaces; and then discusses in detail the ESI for the Wiener measure including properties of this integral understood as a process. Moreover, the ESI with a nonrandom kernel is investigated.Some chapters are devoted to the definition and the investigation of properties of the ESI for Gaussian and differentiable measures.Surface measures in Banach spaces and heat potentials theory in Hilbert space are also discussed.

Innovation Approach To Random Fields, An: Application Of White Noise Theory
Author: Takeyuki Hida
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9814487929
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 204
Book Description
A random field is a mathematical model of evolutional fluctuating complex systems parametrized by a multi-dimensional manifold like a curve or a surface. As the parameter varies, the random field carries much information and hence it has complex stochastic structure.The authors of this book use an approach that is characteristic: namely, they first construct innovation, which is the most elemental stochastic process with a basic and simple way of dependence, and then express the given field as a function of the innovation. They therefore establish an infinite-dimensional stochastic calculus, in particular a stochastic variational calculus. The analysis of functions of the innovation is essentially infinite-dimensional. The authors use not only the theory of functional analysis, but also their new tools for the study.

Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
Stochastic processes are tools used widely by statisticians and researchers working in the mathematics of finance. This book for self-study provides a detailed treatment of conditional expectation and probability, a topic that in principle belongs to probability theory, but is essential as a tool for stochastic processes. The book centers on exercises as the main means of explanation.

Random Evolutions and Their Applications
Author: Anatoly Swishchuk
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9401157545
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 212
Book Description
The main purpose of this handbook is to summarize and to put in order the ideas, methods, results and literature on the theory of random evolutions and their applications to the evolutionary stochastic systems in random media, and also to present some new trends in the theory of random evolutions and their applications. In physical language, a random evolution ( RE ) is a model for a dynamical sys tem whose state of evolution is subject to random variations. Such systems arise in all branches of science. For example, random Hamiltonian and Schrodinger equations with random potential in quantum mechanics, Maxwell's equation with a random refractive index in electrodynamics, transport equations associated with the trajec tory of a particle whose speed and direction change at random, etc. There are the examples of a single abstract situation in which an evolving system changes its "mode of evolution" or "law of motion" because of random changes of the "environment" or in a "medium". So, in mathematical language, a RE is a solution of stochastic operator integral equations in a Banach space. The operator coefficients of such equations depend on random parameters. Of course, in such generality , our equation includes any homogeneous linear evolving system. Particular examples of such equations were studied in physical applications many years ago. A general mathematical theory of such equations has been developed since 1969, the Theory of Random Evolutions.
