In the first book of its kind, Turnbull traces the development and implementation of actuarial ideas, from the conception of Equitable Life in the mid-18th century to the start of the 21st century.
Stable Levy processes and related stochastic processes play an important role in stochastic modelling in applied sciences, in particular in financial mathematics.
when certain parameters in the problem tend to limiting values (for example, when the sample size increases indefinitely, the intensity of the noise ap- proaches zero, etc.
