Stochastic models, information theory, and lie groups, volume 2 (Birkhauser Boston Inc)

This two-volume set covers stochastic processes, information theory and Lie groups in a unified setting, bridging topics rarely studied together. The emphasis is on using stochastic, geometric, and group-theoretic concepts for modeling physical phenomena.This unique two-volume set presents the subjects of stochastic processes, information theory, and Lie groups in a unified setting, thereby building bridges between fields that are rarely studied aby the same individuals. Unlike the many excellent formal treatments available for each of these subjects individually, the emphasis in both of these volumes is on the use of stochastic, geometric, and group-theoretic concepts in the modeling of physical phenomena.§Stochastic Models, Information Theory, and Lie Groups will be of interest to advanced undergraduate and graduate students, researchers, and practitioners working in applied mathematics, the physical sciences, and engineering. Extensive exercises, motivating examples, and real-world applications make the work suitable as a textbook for use in courses that emphasize applied stochastic processes or differential geometry.
