This book has developed over the past fifteen years from a modern
course on stochastic chemical kinetics for graduate students in
physics, chemistry and biology. The first part presents a
systematic collection of the mathematical background material
needed to understand probability, statistics, and stochastic
processes as a prerequisite for the increasingly challenging
practical applications in chemistry and the life sciences examined
in the second part. Recent advances in the development of new
techniques and in the resolution of conventional experiments at
nano-scales have been tremendous: today molecular spectroscopy can
provide insights into processes down to scales at which current
theories at the interface of physics, chemistry and the life
sciences cannot be successful without a firm grasp of randomness
and its sources. Routinely measured data is now sufficiently
accurate to allow the direct recording of fluctuations. As a
result, the sampling of data and the modeling of relevant processes
are doomed to produce artifacts in interpretation unless the
observer has a solid background in the mathematics of limited
reproducibility. The material covered is presented in a modular
approach, allowing more advanced sections to be skipped if the
reader is primarily interested in applications. At the same time,
most derivations of analytical solutions for the selected examples
are provided in full length to guide more advanced readers in their
attempts to derive solutions on their own. The book employs uniform
notation throughout, and a glossary has been added to define the
most important notions discussed.
