Combinatorial Stochastic Processes: Ecole d'Eté de Probabilités de Saint-Flour XXXII - 2002 (Lecture Notes in Mathematics / Ecole d'Eté Probabilit.Saint-Flour)
Combinatorial Stochastic Processes Ecole d'Et de Probabilits de SaintFlour XXXII 2002 - Lecture Notes in Mathematics / Ecole d'Eté Probabilit.Saint-Flour Author:Jim Pitman The purpose of this text is to bring graduate students specializing in probability theory to current research topics at the interface of combinatorics and stochastic processes, in particular the theory of random combinatorial structures such as partitions, permutations, trees, forests, and mappings, and connections between the asymptotic theory ... more »of enumeration of such structures and the theory of stochastic processes like Brownian motion and Poisson processes. The course is a summary and review of the author's research over the last ten years, much of it joint work with coauthors David Aldous, Jean Bertoin, Steven Evans, and Marc Yor.« less
