Beschreibung
Bernstein functions appear in various fields of mathematics, e.g. probability theory, potential theory, operator theory, functional analysis and complex analysis – often with different definitions and under different names. Among the synonyms are `Laplace exponent' instead of Bernstein function, and complete Bernstein functions are sometimes called `Pick functions', `Nevanlinna functions' or `operator monotone functions'.
This monograph – now in its second revised and extended edition – offers a self-contained and unified approach to Bernstein functions and closely related function classes, bringing together old and establishing new connections. For the second edition the authors added a substantial amount of new material. As in the first edition Chapters 1 to 11 contain general material which should be accessible to non-specialists, while the later Chapters 12 to 15 are devoted to more specialized topics. An extensive list of complete Bernstein functions with their representations is provided.
Rezensionen
<p>"To sum up, the book collects and integrates results from a number of sources scattered throughout the literature. It is clearly and carefully written. It will certainly be useful for both graduate students and researchers in different areas." <em>Mathematical Reviews</em> (review of the first edition) </p> <p>"This impressive monograph, which is now in an expanded second edition, does a wonderful job of collecting together and synthesising some of the most important results and applications. Consequently it represents a unique perspective on this important function class which will be a valuable resource for many years to come for both experienced researchers and graduate students."
