Gaussian Measures in Finite and Infinite Dimensions - Daniel W. Stroock
AutorzyDaniel W. Stroock
This text provides a concise introduction, suitable for a one-semester special topics
course, to the remarkable properties of Gaussian measures on both finite and infinite
dimensional spaces. It begins with a brief resumé of probabilistic results in which Fourier
analysis plays an essential role, and those results are then applied to derive a few basic
facts about Gaussian measures on finite dimensional spaces. In anticipation of the analysis
of Gaussian measures on infinite dimensional spaces, particular attention is given to thoseproperties of Gaussian measures that are dimension independent, and Gaussian processes
are constructed. The rest of the book is devoted to the study of Gaussian measures on
Banach spaces. The perspective adopted is the one introduced by I. Segal and developed
by L. Gross in which the Hilbert structure underlying the measure is emphasized.
