The brand new edition of this classic text--with more exercises and easier to use than ever Like the first edition, this new version of Lamperti's classic text succeeds in making this fascinating area of mathematics accessible to readers who have limited knowledge of measure theory and only some familiarity with elementary probability. Streamlined for even greater clarity and with more exercises to help develop and reinforce skills, Probability is ideal for graduate and advanced undergraduate students--both in and out of the classroom. Probability covers:
* Probability spaces, random...

This book is the result of lectures which I gave dur- ing the academic year 1972-73 to third-year students a Aarhus University in Denmark. The purpose of the book, as of the lectures, is to survey some of the main themes in the modern theory of stochastic processes. In my previous book Probability: survey of the mathe- matical theory I gave a short overview of "classical" proba- bility mathematics, concentrating especially on sums of inde- pendent random variables. I did not discuss specific appli- cations of the theory; I did strive for a spirit friendly to application by coming to grips...
