Download or read book Selected Papers of Takeyuki Hida written by Takeyuki Hida and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2001-01-01 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The topics discussed in this book can be classified into three parts: . (i) Gaussian processes. The most general and in fact final representation theory of Gaussian processes is included in this book. This theory is still referred to often and its developments are discussed. (ii) White noise analysis. This book includes the notes of the series of lectures delivered in 1975 at Carleton University in Ottawa. They describe the very original idea of introducing the notion of generalized Brownian functionals (nowadays called OC generalized white noise functionalsOCO, and sometimes OC Hida distributionOCO. (iii) Variational calculus for random fields. This topic will certainly represent one of the driving research lines for probability theory in the next century, as can be seen from several papers in this volume. Sample Chapter(s). Chapter 1: Analysis of Brownian Functionals (1,502 KB).
