J. L. Doob: Foundations of Stochastic Processes and Probabilistic Potential Theory
During the three decades from 1930 to 1960 J. L. Doob was, with the possible exception of Kolmogorov, the man most responsible for the transformation of the study of probability to a mathematical discipline. His accomplishments were recognized by both probabilists and other mathematicians in that he is the only person ever elected to serve as president of both the IMS and the AMS. This article ...
متن کاملQuantum Stochastic Integrals and Doob-meyer Decomposition
Abstract. We show that for a quantum L-martingale (X(t)), p > 2, there exists a Doob-Meyer decomposition of the submartingale (|X(t)|). A noncommutative counterpart of a classical process continuous with probability one is introduced, and a quantum stochastic integral of such a process with respect to an L-martingale, p > 2, is constructed. Using this construction, the uniqueness of the Doob-Me...
متن کاملAnalysis of Probabilistic Processes and Automata Theory
This chapter surveys some basic algorithms for analyzing Markov chains (MCs) and Markov decision processes (MDPs), and discusses their computational complexity. We focus on discrete-time processes, and we consider both finite-state models as well as countably infinite-state models that are finitely-presented. The analyses we will primarily focus on are hitting (reachability) probabilities and ω...
متن کاملFoundations of a Probabilistic Theory of Causal Strength*
This paper develops axiomatic foundations for a probabilistic theory of causal strength as difference-making. I proceed in three steps: First, I motivate the choice of causal Bayes nets as an adequate framework for defining and comparing measures of causal strength. Second, I prove several representation theorems for probabilistic measures of causal strength— that is, I demonstrate how these me...
