内容简介

　　《美国数学会经典影印系列：Markov链与混合时间（影印版）》是对Markov链理论的现代处理方法的导引，该方法的主要目标是确定一个Markov链收敛到作为态空间体积和几何之函数的平稳分布的收敛速率。作者发展了估计收敛时间的关键工具，包括耦合、强平稳时间以及谱方法；一有可能，便强调概率论式的方法。
　　《美国数学会经典影印系列：Markov链与混合时间（影印版）》包括了许多例题并对统计力学的中心模型给出了简短介绍；还讲述了网络上的随机游动，包括击中和掩盖时间，以及对洗牌的各种方法的分析。至于预备知识，作者假定了对概率论的适度了解以及大学水平的线性代数。
　　《美国数学会经典影印系列：Markov链与混合时间（影印版）》打算将这个活跃的研究领域的激情带给大范围的受众。

前言/序言

　　近年来，我国的科学技术取得了长足进步，特别是在数学等自然科学基础领域不断涌现出一流的研究成果。与此同时，国内的科研队伍与国外的交流合作也越来越密切，越来越多的科研工作者可以熟练地阅读英文文献，并在国际顶级期刊发表英文学术文章，在国外出版社出版英文学术著作。
　　然而，在国内阅读海外原版英文图书仍不是非常便捷。一方面，这些原版图书主要集中在科技、教育比较发达的大中城市的大型综合图书馆以及科研院所的资料室中，普通读者借阅不甚容易；另一方面，原版书价格昂贵，动辄上百美元，购买也很不方便。这极大地限制了科技工作者对于国外先进科学技术知识的获取，间接阻碍了我国科技的发展。
　　高等教育出版社本着植根教育、弘扬学术的宗旨服务我国广大科技和教育工作者，同美国数学会（American Mathematical Society）合作，在征求海内外众多专家学者意见的基础上，精选该学会近年出版的数十种专业著作，组织出版了“美国数学会经典影印系列”丛书。美国数学会创建于1888年，是国际上极具影响力的专业学术组织，目前拥有近30000会员和580余个机构成员，出版图书3500多种，冯.诺依曼、莱夫谢茨、陶哲轩等世界级数学大家都是其作者。本影印系列涵盖了代数、几何、分析、方程、拓扑、概率、动力系统等所有主要数学分支以及新近发展的数学主题。我们希望这套书的出版，能够对国内的科研工作者、教育工作者以及青年学生起到重要的学术引领作用，也希望今后能有更多的海外优秀英文著作被介绍到中国。
