Random evolution denotes a class of stochastic processes which evolve according to a rule which varies in time according to jumps. This is in contrast to diffusion processes, which assume that the rule changes continuously with time. Random evolutions provide a very flexible language, having the advantage that they permit direct numerical simulation-which is not possible for a diffusion process. Furthermore, they allow connections with hyperbolic partial differential equations and the kinetic theory of gases, which is impossible within the domain of diffusion proceses. They also posses great geometric invariance, allowing formulation on an arbitrary Riemannian manifold. In the field of stochastic stability, random evolutions furnish some easily computable models in which to study the Lyapunov exponent and rotation numbers of oscillators under the influence of noise. This monograph presents the various aspects of random evolution in an accessible and interesting format which will appeal to a large scientific audience.

A geneticist discusses the role of DNA in the evolution of life on Earth, explaining how an analysis of DNA reveals a complete record of the events that have shaped each species and how it provides evidence of the validity of the theory of evolution.

New York Times bestseller • Winner of the Los Angeles Times Book Prize • One of the Washington Post's 10 Best Books of the Year “It’s no exaggeration to say that Behave is one of the best nonfiction books I’ve ever read.” —David P. Barash, The Wall Street Journal "It has my vote for science book of the year.” —Parul Sehgal, The New York Times "Immensely readable, often hilarious...Hands-down one of the best books I’ve read in years. I loved it." —Dina Temple-Raston, The Washington Post From the bestselling author of A Primate's Memoir and the forthcoming Determined: A Science of Life Without Free Will comes a landmark, genre-defining examination of human behavior and an answer to the question: Why do we do the things we do? Behave is one of the most dazzling tours d’horizon of the science of human behavior ever attempted. Moving across a range of disciplines, Sapolsky—a neuroscientist and primatologist—uncovers the hidden story of our actions. Undertaking some of our thorniest questions relating to tribalism and xenophobia, hierarchy and competition, and war and peace, Behave is a towering achievement—a majestic synthesis of cutting-edge research and a heroic exploration of why we ultimately do the things we do . . . for good and for ill.

This is a new book in biomathematics, which includes new models of stochastic non-linear biological systems and new results for these systems. These results are based on the new results for non-linear difference and differential equations in random media. This book contains: -New stochastic non-linear models of biological systems, such as biological systems in random media: epidemic, genetic selection, demography, branching, logistic growth and predator-prey models; -New results for scalar and vector difference equations in random media with applications to the stochastic biological systems in 1); -New results for stochastic non-linear biological systems, such as averaging, merging, diffusion approximation, normal deviations and stability; -New approach to the study of stochastic biological systems in random media such as random evolution approach.

While several excellent books have been written on algorithms and their analysis, remarkably few have been dedicated to the probabilistic analysis of algorithms. This graduate text/professional reference fills that gap and brings together material that is scattered over tens of publications. Its unifying theme is the study of some classes of random search trees suitable for use as data structures with a behavior of random growth that is almost as good as balanced trees.
