Description
Summary:Develops and explains the foundations of noise-induced processes. Following an introduction to the mathematical tools, this book analyzes the occurrence and the properties of noise-induced transitions for rapidly fluctuating environments describable by the white-noise idealization. It considers more realistic and general types of colored noises.
