Stochastic Geometry, Spatial Statistics and Random Fields

Stochastic Geometry, Spatial Statistics and Random Fields

This volume provides a modern introduction to stochastic geometry, random fields and spatial statistics at a (post)graduate level. It is focused on asymptotic methods in geometric probability including weak and strong limit theorems for random spatial structures (point processes, sets, graphs, fields) with applications to statistics. Written as a contributed volume of lecture notes, it will be useful not only for students but also for lecturers and researchers interested in geometric probability and related subjects.

Stochastic Models for Fractional Calculus

Stochastic Models for Fractional Calculus

This monograph develops the basic theory of fractional calculus and anomalous diffusion, from the point of view of probability. The reader will see how fractional calculus and anomalous diffusion can be understood at a deep and intuitive level, using ideas from probability. The book covers basic limit theorems for random variables and random vectors with heavy tails. Heavy tails are applied in finance, insurance, physics, geophysics, cell biology, ecology, medicine, and computer engineering.

US World War II Parachute Infantry Regiments

US World War II Parachute Infantry Regiments

From North Africa, Sicily, and Italy, to Normandy and Holland, the Battle of the Bulge, into the heart of Nazi Germany, and also in jungle battles in the Pacific the parachute infantry regiments were among the most highly decorated US Army units of World War II, and between them they saw action right across the world. The elite nature of these units led to their being committed to action not only in the way that had been intended; their quality tempted commanders to keep them in the line longer than their light armament justified, and they were tested to the limit.

Winning Low-Limit Hold Em

Winning Low-Limit Hold Em

Since its first publication in 1994, Winning Low-Limit Hold’em, by Lee Jones, has become the major reference on playing Texas Hold’em at the lower limits. However, poker has changed over the several years and Lee has continued to study the game. The result is this revised and expanded second edition.

Secrets of Non-Standard Sit N Gos

Secrets of Non-Standard Sit N Gos

If you think you know sit’n’gos…think again!The sit’n’go (single table tournament) format is one of the most popular and exciting ways to play poker. The classic sit’n’go consists of ten players sitting at one table and playing for three prizes – but this is not the only possible format. There are many other ways that these events can be run and they can provide a lucrative opportunity for the skilled player. In ‘Secrets of non-standard Sit’n’gos,’ Phil Shaw navigates you through these exciting variants and explains how you can make them profitable.The alternative formats discussed include: – Heads-up sit’n’gos (two players)- Sit’n’gos played across two tables- 45-player and 180-player sit’n’gos- Non-NL games, including Pot-Limit Omaha, Stud, Razz, Triple Draw and Hi-lo games- Step systems (where players can win entries to tournaments like the EPT and WSOP)…and many moreAs well as a deep examination of the correct strategies for all these events, ‘Secrets of non-standard Sit’n’gos’ also analyses the most effective way to capitalise on rakeback and reward programs.

A Natural Introduction to Probability Theory

A Natural Introduction to Probability Theory

‘The book [is] an excellent new introductory text on probability. The classical way of teaching probability is based on measure theory. In this book discrete and continuous probability are studied with mathematical precision, within the realm of Riemann integration and not using notions from measure theory. Numerous topics are discussed, such as: random walks, weak laws of large numbers, infinitely many repetitions, strong laws of large numbers, branching processes, weak convergence and [the] central limit theorem. The theory is illustrated with many original and surprising examples and problems.’ Zentralblatt Math ‘Most textbooks designed for a one-year course in mathematical statistics cover probability in the first few chapters as preparation for the statistics to come. This book in some ways resembles the first part of such textbooks: it’s all probability, no statistics. But it does the probability more fully than usual, spending lots of time on motivation, explanation, and rigorous development of the mathematics. The exposition is usually clear and eloquent. Overall, this is a five-star book on probability that could be used as a textbook or as a supplement.’ MAA online
