Designed for students studying mathematical statistics and probability after completing a course in calculus and real variables, this text deals with basic notions of probability spaces, random variables, distribution functions and generating functions, as well as joint distributions and the convergence properties of sequences of random variables. Includes worked examples and over 250 exercises with solutions.
Probability Theory: A Concise Course by Y. A. Rozanov This clear exposition begins with basic concepts and moves on to combination of events, dependent events and random variables, Bernoulli trials and the De Moivre-Laplace theorem, and more. Includes 150 problems, many with answers.
Applied Probability Models with Optimization Applications by Sheldon M. Ross Concise advanced-level introduction to stochastic processes that arise in applied probability. Poisson process, renewal theory, Markov chains, Brownian motion, much more. Problems. References. Bibliography. 1970 edition.
Dynamic Probabilistic Systems, Volume I: Markov Models by Ronald A. Howard An integrated work in two volumes, this text teaches readers to formulate, analyze, and evaluate Markov models. The first volume treats basic process; the second, semi-Markov and decision processes. 1971 edition.
A Treatise on Probability by John Maynard Keynes Originally published in 1921, this mathematical work represents a significant contribution to the logical probability of propositions. Keynes effectively dismantled the classical theory, launching the "logical-relationist" theory of probability.
