This three-chapter volume concerns the distributions of certain functionals of Levy processes. The first chapter, by Makoto Maejima, surveys representations of the main sub-classes of infinitesimal distributions in terms of mappings of certain Levy processes via stochastic integration. The second chapter, by Lars Norvang Andersen, Soren Asmussen, Peter W. Glynn and Mats Pihlsgard, concerns Levy processes reflected at two barriers, where reflection is formulated a la Skorokhod. These processes can be used to model systems with a finite capacity, which is crucial in many real life...

Over the last twenty years or so there has been a sharp increase in interest from national sports federations and governments in the development of effective elite sport systems, particularly focused on achieving success in the summer and winter Olympic Games. Many countries now have publicly funded elite sports strategies which provide specialist facilities and support staff and often provide direct financial support for athletes. These developments have stimulated academic interest in describing the elite sport systems, analysing the processes by which policy is established and...
