Abstract

Modern apparatus of the theory of random processes is able of constructing closed descriptions of dynamic systems if these systems meet the condition of dynamic causality and are formulated in terms of linear partial differential equations or certain types of integral equations (see Chapter 5). One can use indicator functions to perform the transition from the initial, generally nonlinear system to the equivalent description in terms of the linear partial differential equations. However, this approach results in increasing the dimension of the space of variables. Consider such a transition using the dynamic systems described in Chapter 1.
