The 2nd edition of this book is essentially an extended version of the 1st and provides a very sound overview of the most important special functions of Fractional Calculus.
This book offers an easily accessible and comprehensive guide to the entire market research process, from asking market research questions to collecting and analyzing data by means of quantitative methods.
This book provides advanced theoretical and applied tools for the implementation of modern micro-econometric techniques in evidence-based program evaluation for the social sciences.
This book is a collection of thoroughly refereed papers presented at the 26th IFIP TC 7 Conference on System Modeling and Optimization, held in Klagenfurt, Austria, in September 2013.
As a result of researchers' and scientists' increasing interest in pure as well as applied mathematics in non-conventional models, particularly those using fractional calculus, Mittag-Leffler functions have recently caught the interest of the scientific community.
The innovative progress in the development oflarge-and small-scale parallel computing systems and their increasing availability have caused a sharp rise in interest in the scientific principles that underlie parallel computation and parallel programming.
For a nonlinear filtering problem, the most heuristic andeasiest approximation is to use the Taylor series expansionand apply the conventional linear recursive Kalman filteralgorithm directly to the linearized nonlinear measurementand transition equations.
These notes contain all the material accumulated over six years in Strasbourg to teach "e;Quantum Probability"e; to myself and to an audience of commutative probabilists.
Background and Scope of the Book This book continues, extends, and unites various developments in the intersection of probability theory and dynamical systems.
The aim of this book is to provide an accessible introduction to stochastic differ- ential equations and their applications together with a systematic presentation of methods available for their numerical solution.
The principal purpose of this book is to provide an account of the circle of ideas, results and techniques, which emerged roughly over the last ten years in the study of Brownian motion and random obstacles.
The "e;raison d'etre"e; of hierarchical dustering theory stems from one basic phe- nomenon: This is the notorious non-transitivity of similarity relations.
The purpose of this book is to provide a careful and accessible account along modern lines of the subject wh ich the title deals, as weIl as to discuss prob- lems of current interest in the field.
Mathematical biology - the use of mathematical ideas andmodels in the biosciences - is a fast growing, very excitingand increasingly important inderdisciplinary field.
The worldwide economic recession of the last years - sometimes described as an outright depression similar to the one of the early thirties - has led many health policy analysts and even policy makers to revive the old question of whether, and in what respect, there is a close relationship between economic development and health.
"e;Algorithmic information theory (AIT) is the result of putting Shannon's information theory and Turing's computability theory into a cocktail shaker and shaking vigorously"e;, says G.
From the reviews to the first edition:Most of the literature about stochastic differentialequations seems to place so much emphasis on rigor andcompleteness that it scares the nonexperts away.
Sinai's book leads the student through the standard materialfor ProbabilityTheory, with stops along the way forinteresting topics such as statistical mechanics, notusually included in a book for beginners.
The idea of this book began with an invitation to give a course at the Third Chilean Winter School in Probability and Statistics, at Santiago de Chile, in July, 1984.
Initially the theory of convergence in law of stochastic processes was developed quite independently from the theory of martingales, semimartingales and stochastic integrals.
