'The author has done an extraordinary job in showing not simply what the presented theorems can be used for, but also what they cannot be used for.' Miklós Bóna, SIGACT News
This book is an introduction to probability theory covering laws of large numbers, central limit theorems, random walks, martingales, Markov chains, ergodic theorems, and Brownian motion. It is a comprehensive treatment concentrating on the results that are the most useful for applications. Its philosophy is that the best way to learn probability is to see it in action, so there are 200 examples and 450 problems.

Seller: World of Books Inc, Montgomery, IL, U.S.A.
Hardback. Condition: Very Good. This lively introduction to measure-theoretic probability theory covers laws of large numbers, central limit theorems, random walks, martingales, Markov chains, ergodic theorems, and Brownian motion. Concentrating on results that are the most useful for applications, this comprehensive treatment is a rigorous graduate text and reference. Operating under the philosophy that the best way to learn probability is to see it in action, the book contains extended examples that apply the theory to concrete applications. This fifth edition contains a new chapter on multidimensional Brownian motion and its relationship to PDEs, an advanced topic that is finding new applications. Setting the foundation for this expansion, Chapter 7 now features a proof of It 's formula. Key exercises that previously were simply proofs left to the reader have been directly inserted into the text as lemmas. The new edition reinstates discussion about the central limit theorem for martingales and stationary sequences. Seller Inventory # CIN0534243185VG
