商品描述

This book extends the theory and applications of random evolutions to semi-Markov random media in discrete time, essentially focusing on semi-Markov chains as switching or driving processes. After giving the definitions of discrete-time semi-Markov chains and random evolutions, it presents the asymptotic theory in a functional setting, including weak convergence results in the series scheme, and their extensions in some additional directions, including reduced random media, controlled processes, and optimal stopping. Finally, applications of discrete-time semi-Markov random evolutions in epidemiology and financial mathematics are discussed. This book will be of interest to researchers and graduate students in applied mathematics and statistics, and other disciplines, including engineering, epidemiology, finance and economics, who are concerned with stochastic models of systems.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書將隨機演化的理論和應用擴展至離散時間的半馬可夫隨機媒介,主要聚焦於半馬可夫鏈作為切換或驅動過程。在給出離散時間半馬可夫鏈和隨機演化的定義後,本書呈現了功能性設定下的漸近理論,包括系列方案中的弱收斂結果,以及在一些額外方向上的擴展,包括簡化隨機媒介、受控過程和最佳停頓。最後,討論了離散時間半馬可夫隨機演化在流行病學和金融數學中的應用。本書將吸引應用數學和統計學以及其他學科(包括工程、流行病學、金融和經濟學)中關注系統隨機模型的研究人員和研究生。
