Among the synonyms are `Laplace exponent' instead of Bernstein function, and complete Bernstein functions are sometimes called `Pick functions', `Nevanlinna functions' or `operator monotone functions'. This monograph - now in its second revised and extended edition - offers a self-contained and unified approach to Bernstein functions and closely related function classes, bringing together old and establishing new connections. For the second edition the authors added a substantial amount of new material. As in the first edition Chapters 1 to 11 contain general material which should be accessible to non-specialists, while the later Chapters 12 to 15 are devoted to more specialized topics. An extensive list of complete Bernstein functions with their representations is provided. 410 3$aDe Gruyter Studies in Mathematics 606 $aAnalytic functions 606 $aMonotonic functions 606 $aQuasianalytic functions 610 $aBernstein Function. 610 $aMonotone Function. 610 $aProbability Measure. 610 $aSemigroup. 610 $aTheory. 615 0$aAnalytic functions. 615 0$aMonotonic functions. 615 0$aQuasianalytic functions. 676 $a515/.8 686 $aSK 420$2rvk 700 $aSchilling$b Rene?
