Abstract
Prior to consider statistical descriptions of the problems mentioned in Part 1, we discuss basic concepts of the theory of random quantities, processes, and fields.
This chapter concerns those basic properties of random quantities, processes, and fields that are widely used in analyzing dynamic systems with fluctuating parameters, but only slightly elucidated in textbooks. Here, we will follow monographs [46, 48, 49], in which one can also found the fundamental references concerning the problem.
