Focuses on probabilistic foundations of the Feynman-Kac formula. Starting with main examples of Gaussian processes (the Brownian motion, the oscillatory process, and the Brownian bridge), this book presents four different proofs of the Feynman-Kac formula.

In this title, Hawkins places Lebesgue's early work on integration theory within its proper historical context by relating it to the developments during the 19th century that motivated it and gave it significance and also to the contributions made in this field by Lebesgue's contemporaries. Hawkins was awarded the 1997 MAA Chauvenet Prize and the 2001 AMS Albert Leon Whiteman Memorial Prize for notable exposition and exceptional scholarship in the history of mathematics.

Intending to take his readers very much into his confidence: as he builds the theory, the author points out the alternative paths he might have taken, the alternative definitions he might have used, he shows what the implications of these alternatives are,
