Infinite dimensionality occurs  when the evolution in time of a process is accompanied by a space-like  dependence; for example, spatial distribution of the temperature for a  heat-conductor, spatial dependence of the time-varying displacement of  a membrane subject to external forces, etc. Randomness is intrinsic to  the mathematical formulation of many phenomena, such as fluctuation in  the stock market, or noise in communication networks. Control theory  of distributed parameter systems and stochastic systems focuses on  physical phenomena which are governed by partial differential  equations, delay-differential equations, integral differential  equations, etc., and stochastic differential equations of various  types. This has been a fertile field of research with over 40 years of  history, which continues to be very active under the thrust of new  emerging applications. \u003cbr\u003e  Among the subjects covered are: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eControl of  distributed parameter systems; \u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eStochastic control;  \u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eApplications in finance\/insurance\/manufacturing; \u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eAdapted  control; \u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eNumerical approximation\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003c\/ul\u003e  . \u003cbr\u003e  It is essential reading for applied mathematicians, control theorists,  economic\/financial analysts and engineers. \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2013-04-17\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781475748680\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-0-387-35359-3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 334\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44359066288268,"sku":"9781475748680","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781475748680.jpg?v=1779503903","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9781475748680","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
