This is a companion book to Asymptotic Analysis of Random Walks: Heavy-Tailed Distributions by A.A. Borovkov and K.A. Borovkov. Its self-contained systematic exposition provides a highly useful resource for academic researchers and professionals interested in applications of probability in statistics, ruin theory, and queuing theory. The large deviation principle for random walks was first established by the author in 1967, under the restrictive condition that the distribution tails decay faster than exponentially. (A close assertion was proved by S.R.S. Varadhan in 1966, but only in a rather special case.) Since then, the principle has always been treated in the literature only under this condition. Recently, the author jointly with A.A. Mogul'skii removed this restriction, finding a natural metric for which the large deviation principle for random walks holds without any conditions. This new version is presented in the book, as well as a new approach to studying large deviations in boundary crossing problems. Many results presented in the book, obtained by the author himself or jointly with co-authors, are appearing in a monograph for the first time.
A comprehensive monograph presenting a unified systematic exposition of the large deviations theory for heavy-tailed random walks.
A systematic modern treatise on large deviation theory for random walks with light tails, from one of its key creators.
This monograph is devoted to studying the asymptotic behaviour of the probabilities of large deviations of the trajectories of random walks, with 'heavy-tailed' (in particular, regularly varying, sub- and semiexponential) jump distributions. It presents a unified and systematic exposition.
The classical theory of random walks describes the asymptotic behavior of sums of independent identically distributed random real variables. This book explains the generalization of this theory to products of independent identically distributed random matrices with real coefficients. Under the assumption that the action of the matrices is semisimple – or, equivalently, that the Zariski closure of the group generated by these matrices is reductive - and under suitable moment assumptions, it is shown that the norm of the products of such random matrices satisfies a number of classical probabilistic laws. This book includes necessary background on the theory of reductive algebraic groups, probability theory and operator theory, thereby providing a modern introduction to the topic.
The basic theory presented in a way which emphasizes intuition, problem-solving and the connections with other fields.
Paperback. Both the formalism and many of the attendant ideas related to the random walk lie at the core of a significant fraction of contemporary research in statistical physics. In the language of physics the random walk can be described as a microscopic model for transport processes which have some element of randomness. The starting point of nearly all analyses of transport in disordered media is to be found in one or another type of random walk model. Mathematical formalism based on the theory of random walks is not only pervasive in a number of areas of physics, but also finds application in many areas of chemistry. The random walk has also been applied to the study of a number of biological phenomena.Despite the obvious importance of random walks in these and other applications there are few books devoted to the subject. This is therefore a timely introduction to the subject which will be welcomed by students and more senior researchers who have
This book is devoted exclusively to a very special class of random processes, namely, to random walk on the lattice points of ordinary Euclidian space. The author considers this high degree of specialization worthwhile because the theory of such random walks is far more complete than that of any larger class of Markov chains. Almost 100 pages of examples and problems are included.
A visual, intuitive introduction in the form of a tour with side-quests, using direct probabilistic insight rather than technical tools.
