The author's previous book, "Random Walk in Random and Non-Random Environments", was devoted to the investigation of the Brownian motion of a simple particle. The present book studies the independent motions of infinitely many particles in the d-dimensional Euclidean space Rd. In Part I the particles at time t = 0 are distributed in Rd according to the law of a given random field and they execute independent random walks. Part II is devoted to branching random walks, that is, to the case where the particles execute random motions and birth and death processes independently. Finally, in Part...

The simplest mathematical model of the Brownian motion of physics is the simple, symmetric random walk. This book collects and compares current results ? mostly strong theorems which describe the properties of a random walk. The modern problems of the limit theorems of probability theory are treated in the simple case of coin tossing. Taking advantage of this simplicity, the reader is familiarized with limit theorems (especially strong ones) without the burden of technical tools and difficulties. An easy way of considering the Wiener process is also given, through the study of the random...
