A Course on Tug-of-War Games with Random Noise
Springer International Publishing (Verlag)
978-3-030-46208-6 (ISBN)
The book explores both basic and more advanced constructions, carefully explaining the parallel between linear and nonlinear cases. The presentation is self-contained with many exercises, making the book suitable as a textbook for a graduate course, as well as for self-study. Extensive background and auxiliary material allow the tailoring of courses to individual student levels.
Marta Lewicka is a Polish mathematician at the University of Pittsburgh, specializing in Mathematical Analysis. Marta obtained her PhD in 2000 from Scuola Internazionale Superiore di Studi Avanzati with a thesis on Hyperbolic Systems of Conservation Laws. She has subsequently worked on Calculus of Variations, Partial Differential Equations, Continuum Mechanics, and Tug-of-War Games in relation to Nonlinear Potential Theory.
