Lecture 2: Random variables in Banach spaces
... In this lecture we take up the study of random variables with values in a Banach space E. The main result is the Itô-Nisio theorem (Theorem 2.17), which asserts that various modes of convergence of sums of independent symmetric E-valued random variables are equivalent. This result gives us a powerf ...

Probability, Analysis and Number Theory. Papers in Honour of N. H.
... One of the nice things about Probability Theory is that it is still a young subject. Of course it has ancient roots in the real world, as chance is all around us, and draws on the older fields of Analysis on the one hand and Statistics on the other. We take the conventional view that the modern era ...

... The hydrologist Harold Erwin Hurst (1951) generated tremendous interest when he published results based on water level data that he analyzed for regions of the Nile river which showed that Plots of log( RN / DN ) versus log N are linear with slope H 0.75. According to Feller’s analysis this must ...

What Could Be Objective About Probabilities
... Stochastic dynamics has been most strongly associated, in the history of physics, with quantum theory (“God plays dice.”). And many of the ways of understanding that theory (although not all) do employ a stochastic dynamics. It is often said, for example, that there is absolutely no preceding cause ...

Let Xn be the nth square visited by the player. The player starts on square 0 (or 40; labelled “Go”), so X0 = 0. In most cases, if on square j, t ...
