DDC classification:

519.23 23 Sc336

Contents:

1. A short probability review-- 2. Discrete time branching process-- 3. The simple symmetric random walk-- 4. Asymmetric and higher dimension random walks-- 5. Discrete-Time Markov Chains -- 6. Stationary Distributions of a Markov Chain -- 7. The poisson process-- 8. Continuous time branching processes-- 9. Continuous-Time Birth and Death Chains -- 10. Percolation-- 11. A Cellular Automaton -- 12. A Branching Random Walk -- 13. The Contact Process on a Homogeneous Tree -- A A little more probability-- References-- Index.

Summary: The revised and expanded edition of this book presents concepts and applications of random processes with the addition of material on biological modeling. While still treating many problems in fields such as engineering and mathematical physics, the book also focuses on the topics of cancerous mutations, influenza evolution, drug resistance, and immune response.
