Markov Chains -- Bibliography -- Index.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.Probability and Its Applications,2297-0398Stochastic processesProbabilitiesMathematical statisticsDynamical systemsStochastic ProcessesProbability TheoryMathematical StatisticsApplied ProbabilityDynamical SystemsStochastic Systems and ControlProcessos de MarkovthubSistemes de temps discretthubLlibres electrònicsthubStochastic processes.Probabilities.Mathematical statistics.Dynamical systems.Stochastic Processes.Probability Theory.Mathematical Statistics.Applied Probability.Dynamical Systems.Stochastic Systems and Control.Processos de MarkovSistemes de temps discret519.233Limnios Nikolaos768208Swishchuk Anatoliy755861MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910735778203321Discrete-Time Semi-Markov Random Evolutions and Their Applications3417143UNINA
