A modern presentation of the 'Lyapunov function' method applied to near-critical stochastic systems, exemplified by non-homogeneous random walks.

This book explores the potential role of space-based systems in global risk and disaster management. The text introduces the proposed international global natural and industrial emergency aerospace monitoring system (IGMASS), its architecture and function.

Markov chains are an important idea, related to random walks, which crops up widely in applied stochastic analysis. They are used for example in performance modeling and evaluation of computer networks, queuing networks, and telecommunication systems. The main point of the present book is to provide methods, based on the construction of Lyapunov functions, of determining when a Markov chain is ergodic, null recurrent, or transient. These methods, which are on the whole original and new, can also be extended to the study of questions of stability. Of particular concern are reflected random...
