From Markov Chains To Non-equilibrium Particle Systems

This volume is representative of the work of Chinese probabilitists on probability theory and its applications in physics. Many interesting results of Jump Markov Processes are discussed, and a very fashionable new class of Markov processes — Markov interacting processes with noncompact states, including the important Schlögl model taken from statistical physics, is also considered. The main body of this book is self-contained and can be used in a course on “Stochastic Processes” for graduate students.
