Book Description

The three main themes of this book, probability theory, differential geometry, and the theory of integrable systems, reflect the broad range of mathematical interests of Henry McKean, to whom it is dedicated. Written by experts in probability, geometry, integrable systems, turbulence, and percolation, the seventeen papers included here demonstrate a wide variety of techniques that have been developed to solve various mathematical problems in these areas. The topics are often combined in an unusual and interesting fashion to give solutions outside of the standard methods. The papers contain some exciting results and offer a guide to the contemporary literature on these subjects.

• Foundations in Statistical Reasoning (Pete Kaslik)

  This book is designed for students taking an introductory statistics class. The emphasis throughout the entire book is on how to make decisions with only partial evidence. It focuses on the thought process.

• Theory of Statistics (James E. Gentle)

  This book is directed toward students for whom mathematical statistics is or will become an important part of their lives. It covers classical likelihood, Bayesian, and permutation inference; an introduction to basic asymptotic distribution theory; and modern topics.

• Applied Probability (Paul Pfeiffer)

  This book presents a unique blend of theory and applications, with special emphasis on mathematical modeling, computational techniques, and examples from the real world application in industries and science.

• Introduction to Probability, Statistics, and Random Processes

  This book introduces students to probability, statistics, and stochastic processes. It provides a clear and intuitive approach to these topics while maintaining mathematical accuracy. The book contains a large number of solved exercises.

• Foundations of Constructive Probability Theory (Yuen-Kwok Chan)

  This book provides a systematic and general theory of probability within the framework of Constructive Mathematics. It can serve as a parallel introduction into constructive mathematics and rigorous probability theory.

• Introduction to Random Matrices: Theory and Practice

  This is a book for absolute beginners. The aim is to provide a truly accessible introductory account of Random Matrix theory. Most chapters are accompanied by MATLAB codes to guide readers through the numerical check of most analytical results.

• Elementary Probability for Applications (Rick Durrett)

  This clear and lively introduction to probability theory concentrates on the results that are the most useful for applications, including combinatorial probability and Markov chains. Concise and focused, it is designed for students familiar with basic calculus.

• Bayesian Models of Perception and Action: An Introduction

  An accessible introduction to constructing and interpreting Bayesian models of perceptual decision-making and action. Provides an approachable introduction to constructing and reasoning with probabilistic models of perceptual decision-making and action.

• Essentials of Stochastic Processes (Rick Durrett)

  Stochastic processes have become important for many fields, including mathematical finance and engineering. Written by one of the worlds leading probabilists, this book presents recent results previously available only in specialized monographs.

• Probability in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science

  This textbook motivates and illustrates the techniques of applied probability by applications in electrical engineering and computer science (EECS). Python labs enable the readers to experiment and consolidate their understanding.

• Introduction to Probability (Charles M. Grinstead, et al)

  The book is a beautiful introduction to probability theory at the beginning level. The book contains a lot of examples and an easy development of theory without any sacrifice of rigor, keeping the abstraction to a minimal level.

• Probability Theory: The Logic of Science (E. T. Jaynes)

  Going beyond the conventional mathematics of probability theory, this study views the subject in a wider context. It discusses new results, along with applications of probability theory to a variety of problems.

• Probability: Theory and Examples (Rick Durrett)

  This lively introduction to measure-theoretic probability theory covers laws of large numbers, central limit theorems, random walks, martingales, Markov chains, ergodic theorems, and Brownian motion.
