Hannes Risken

Springer-Verlag, 1989 - Mathematics - 472 pages

Provides graduate students and researchers (physics, chemical physics, electrical engineering) with a beautifully organized and detailed account of the Fokker-Planck equation: how it arises, and how information is tickled out of it. Twelve chapters, plus appendices and a supplement outlining developments subsequent to the appearance (1984) of the 1st edition. Attractively printed on slick paper.
