Lévy's work on random walks with infinite moments, developed more than half a century ago, has now been fully appreciated as a foundation of probabilistic aspects of fractals and chaos as well as scale-invariant processes. This is the first book for physicists devoted to Lévy processes. It includes thorough review articles on applications in fluid and gas dynamics, in dynamical systems including anomalous diffusion and in statistical mechanics. Various articles approach mathematical problems and finally the volume addresses problems in theoretical biology. The book is introduced by a personal recollection of P. Lévy written by B. Mandelbrot.Lecture Notes in Physics,0075-8450 ;450Statistical physicsDynamical systemsThermodynamicsProbabilitiesPhysicsComplex Systemshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P33000Thermodynamicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P21050Probability Theory and Stochastic Processeshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M27004Mathematical Methods in Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19013Numerical and Computational Physics, Simulationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19021Statistical Physics and Dynamical Systemshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19090Statistical physics.Dynamical systems.Thermodynamics.Probabilities.Physics.Complex Systems.Thermodynamics.Probability Theory and Stochastic Processes.Mathematical Methods in Physics.Numerical and Computational Physics, Simulation.Statistical Physics and Dynamical Systems.530.1/59282Shlesinger Michael Fedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtZaslavsky George Medthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtFrisch Urieledthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK996466693803316Lévy Flights and Related Topics in Physics2519153UNISA
