These lectures emphasize the relation between the problem of enumerating complicated graphs and the related large deviations questions. Such questions are closely related with the asymptotic distribution of matrices.

This book covers the fundamentals of measure theory and probability theory. It begins with the construction of Lebesgue measure via Caratheodory s outer measure approach and goes on to discuss integration and standard convergence theorems and contains an entire chapter devoted to complex measures, Lp spaces, Radon Nikodym theorem, and the Riesz representation theorem. It presents the elements of probability theory, the law of large numbers, and central limit theorem. The book then discusses discrete time Markov chains, stationary distributions and limit theorems. The appendix covers many...

Integration theory deals with extended real-valued, vector-valued, or operator-valued measures and functions. Different approaches are applied in each of these cases using different techniques. The order structure of the (extended) real number system is used for real-valued functions and measures whereas suprema and infima are replaced with topological limits in the vector-valued case.

A novel approach employing more general structures, locally convex cones, which are natural generalizations of locally convex vector spaces, is introduced here. This setting allows developing a...

Abstract topological tools from generalized metric spaces are applied in this volume to the construction of locally uniformly rotund norms on Banach spaces. The book offers new techniques for renorming problems, all of them based on a network analysis for the topologies involved inside the problem.

Maps from a normed space X to a metric space Y, which provide locally uniformly rotund renormings on X, are studied and a new frame for the theory is obtained, with interplay between functional analysis, optimization and topology using subdifferentials of Lipschitz functions and covering...
