Upper and Lower Bounds for Stochastic Processes

Reviews / Votes

"Although he writes a book about inequalities of stochastic processes, Talagrand focuses on modern abstract methods, completely abdicating the 'classical approach'. ... Talagrand's goal in this book is, without any doubt, very ambitious. ... it contains marvelous ideas that should very likely be in the toolbox of anyone dealing with stochastic processes." (Antonio Auffinger, Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society, Vol. 53 (1), January, 2016)

"Each chapter begins with an explanation of the overall philosophy and gives a brief survey of the things to come. This makes a rewarding read for everyone with a sound probability background, and for the specialist it is even entertaining and most inspiring. ... There are many areas where Talagrand has a very personal view of things which, I am sure, will be food for thought for future generations of probabilists." (Rene L. Schilling, The Mathematical Gazette, Vol. 100 (547), 2016)

"The topic of this book is the study of the supremum of certain stochastic processes, more precisely, it describes how to find upper and lower bounds for this suprema. ... The book can be interesting for all potential readers who study the modern stochastic methods, for undergraduate and postgraduate students, for specialists in the theory of stochastic processes and for practitioners who treat the trajectories of stochastic models."
