In this book, several world experts present one part of the mathematical heritage of Kolmogorov. Each chapter treats one of his research themes or a subject invented as a consequence of his discoveries. The authors present his contributions, his methods, the perspectives he opened, and the way in which this research has evolved. Coverage also includes examples of recent applications and a presentation of the modern prospects. Rather than present detailed proofs, the main ideas are described. A bibliography is provided for those who wish to understand the technical details.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBack Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA.N. Kolmogorov (b. Tambov 1903, d. Moscow 1987) was one of the most brilliant mathematicians that the world has ever known. Incredibly deep and creative, he was able to approach each subject with a completely new point of view: in a few magnificent pages, which are models of shrewdness and imagination, and which astounded his contemporaries, he changed drastically the landscape of the subject. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMost mathematicians prove what they can, Kolmogorov was of those who prove what they want. For this book several world experts were asked to present one part of the mathematical heritage left to us by Kolmogorov. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEach chapter treats one of Kolmogorov's research themes, or a subject that was invented as a consequence of his discoveries.
