Random Recollections of an Old Publisher

Random Recollections of an Old Publisher

William Tinsley

Cambridge University Press
2010
pokkari
William Tinsley (1830–1900) was a noted Victorian publisher whose catalogue included works by such celebrated novelists as Thomas Hardy and Wilkie Collins. This two-volume autobiography, first published in 1900, traces his life from his rural childhood to the establishment and rise of the Tinsley Brothers company in 1858, and its later collapse. Each chapter contains a series of brief sketches of authors and other contemporaries. Volume 2 charts Tinsley's later career, and features several lengthier portraits of some of the personalities he encountered. It also includes information on Victorian playwrights and actors, along with a detailed section on the history of Sadler's Wells theatre. Based on Tinsley's personal recollections, and incorporating letters as well as anecdotal information, these volumes will fascinate anyone interested in the history of publishing and the development of the nineteenth-century novel.
Random Processes in Physics

Random Processes in Physics

This succinct book is unique in that it covers topics starting from the very basics of probability theory leading up to applications in (equilibrium) statistical physics, quantum theory and complex systems. The overarching aim of the book is to present probabilistic concepts, in a way accessible to physics undergraduates and with applications in physics in mind. The book is split into three parts: Part I: Fundamentals - The starting point of the book will present basic concepts in probability theory including discussions about general motivation, the difficulties in dealing with probabilities and a number of basic examples. This part will include some of the general mathematical concepts underpinning probability theory. This will be followed by a discussion of joint probabilities and topics relating to Bayes theorem. Lastly I will discuss how computers generate (pseudo-) random numbers, a topic which is key in any modern view on random processes for physicists. Part II: Specific probability distributions - The second part of the book will focus on the probability distributions most important for applications in physics including discussions about the Central Limit Theorem, the Gaussian distribution, Poissonian distributions and the connection with exponential random variables. Chapters on Levy flights, selfsimilarity, power law distributions (including applications) and on extreme value statistics (e.g. Gumbel and Weibull distributions) will complete Part II of the book.Part III: Applications in and beyond physics - The final part of the book will explore specific applications of random process modelling in physics and in selected adjacent disciplines, specifically applications in quantum theory, viewed specifically from the perspective of random processes and probability theory. Chapters will contain a derivation of the standard ensembles of classical statistical physics, from the point of view of information theory. This is then extended to quantum statistical physics and density matrices. Finally we will discuss simple Markov chains and Monte Carlo simulations, as well as applications of probability theory to a selected set of topics in complex systems. These will be described at a level suitable for undergraduate students in the first and second year.
Random Circulant Matrices

Random Circulant Matrices

Circulant matrices have been around for a long time and have been extensively used in many scientific areas. This book studies the properties of the eigenvalues for various types of circulant matrices, such as the usual circulant, the reverse circulant, and the k-circulant when the dimension of the matrices grow and the entries are random. In particular, the behavior of the spectral distribution, of the spectral radius and of the appropriate point processes are developed systematically using the method of moments and the various powerful normal approximation results. This behavior varies according as the entries are independent, are from a linear process, and are light- or heavy-tailed. Arup Bose obtained his B.Stat., M.Stat. and Ph.D. degrees from the Indian Statistical Institute. He has been on its faculty at the Theoretical Statistics and Mathematics Unit, Kolkata, India since 1991. He is a Fellow of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics, and of all three national science academies of India. He is a recipient of the S.S. Bhatnagar Prize and the C.R. Rao Award. He is the author of three books: Patterned Random Matrices, Large Covariance and Autocovariance Matrices (with Monika Bhattacharjee) and U-Statistics, M_m-Estimators and Resampling (with Snigdhansu Chatterjee). Koushik Saha obtained a B.Sc. in Mathematics from Ramakrishna Mission Vidyamandiara, Belur and an M.Sc. in Mathematics from Indian Institute of Technology Bombay. He obtained his Ph.D. degree from the Indian Statistical Institute under the supervision of Arup Bose. His thesis on circulant matrices received high praise from the reviewers. He has been on the faculty of the Department of Mathematics, Indian Institute of Technology Bombay since 2014.
