Abstract
We present here an introduction to some recent work of the Heidelberg school, due to W. von Waldenfels, P. Glockner, and specially M. Schürmann, on processes with independent increments in a non-commutative setup. This chapter is reduced to the bare essentials, and its purpose is only to lead the reader to the much richer original articles. Some very recent and interesting remarks from Belavkin [6] could be inserted into the chapter just before departure to the publisher’s office. I am in great debt to lectures by Sauvageot in Paris, and Parthasarathy in Strasbourg, which made clear for me how natural coalgebras are in this setup.
