Stochastic Processes

This is a brief introduction to stochastic processes studying certain elementary continuous-time processes. After a description of the Poisson process and related processes with independent increments as well as a brief look at Markov processes with a finite number of jumps, the author proceeds to introduce Brownian motion and to develop stochastic integrals and Ito's theory in the context of one-dimensional diffusion processes. The book ends with a brief survey of the general theory of Mar...
