Markov Random Flights (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book is the first systematic presentation of the theory of Markov random flights in the Euclidean spaces of different dimensions. Markov random flights acts as an effective tool for modeling the slow and super-slow diffusion processes arising in various fields of science and technology.
