This is a development of the book entitled Multidimensional Second Order Stochastic Processes. It provides a research expository treatment of infinite-dimensional stationary and nonstationary stochastic processes or time series, based on Hilbert and Banach space-valued second order random variables. Stochastic measures and scalar or operator bimeasures are fully discussed to develop integral representations of various classes of nonstationary processes such as harmonizable, V-bounded, Cramer and Karhunen classes as well as the stationary class. A new type of the Radon-Nikodym derivative of a Banach space-valued measure is introduced, together with Schauder basic measures, to study uniformly bounded linearly stationary processes.Emphasis is on the use of functional analysis and harmonic analysis as well as probability theory. Applications are made from the probabilistic and statistical points of view to prediction problems, Kalman filter, sampling theorems and strong laws of large numbers. Generalizations are made to consider Banach space-valued stochastic processes to include processes of pth order for p 1. Readers may find that the covariance kernel is always emphasized and reveals another aspect of stochastic processes.This book is intended not only for probabilists and statisticians, but also for functional analysts and communication engineers.
Information Theory is studied from the following points of view: (1) the theory of entropy as amount of information; (2) the mathematical structure of information sources (probability measures); and (3) the theory of information channels. Shannon entropy and Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy are defined and their basic properties are examined, where the latter entropy is extended to be a linear functional on a certain set of measures. Ergodic and mixing properties of stationary sources are studied as well as AMS (asymptotically mean stationary) sources.The main purpose of this book is to present information channels in the environment of functional analysis and operator theory as well as probability theory. Ergodic, mixing, and AMS channels are also considered in detail with some illustrations. In this second edition, channel operators are studied in many aspects, which generalize ordinary channels. Also Gaussian channels are considered in detail together with Gaussian measures on a Hilbert space. The Special Topics chapter deals with features such as generalized capacity, channels with an intermediate noncommutative system, and von Neumann algebra method for channels. Finally, quantum (noncommutative) information channels are examined in an independent chapter, which may be regarded as an introduction to quantum information theory. Von Neumann entropy is introduced and its generalization to a C*-algebra setting is given. Basic results on quantum channels and entropy transmission are also considered.
