Description
Summary:"The focus of this book is a mathematical structure modeling a physical or biologist system that can be in any of a number of discrete states. Each state is characterized by just one of these features. The evolution of such a system over time is considered. This structure, which is called a 'medium, ' is investigated here from various standpoints: aglebraic, geometric, algorithmic, and probabilistic (stochastic)."--Jacket.
