Description: This volume contains twenty-two original contributions by leading scientists in many important areas of probability theory and its applications. The material also includes significant new results. Together this collection of papers provides a good state-of-the-art survey of current research in the following areas: inequalities; limit theorems; renewal theory and reliability theory; characterizations of distributions; infinite divisibility of polynomials of normal variables; limiting distributions for order statistics; stochastic processes; functional equations in engineering model building; and probabilistic number theory. <br/>
