Combinatorial Stochastic Processes : Ecole d'Eté de Probabilités de Saint-Flour XXXII - 2002

This volume contains the course “Combinatorial stochastic processes” of Professor Pitman. We cordially thank the author for his performance in Saint-Flour and for these notesThere is particular focus on the theory of random combinatorial structures such as partitions, permutations, trees, forests, and mappings, and connections between the asymptotic theory of enumeration of such structures and the theory of stochastic processes like Brownian motion and Poisson processes.
