Prob/Stats Material on complex random variables and exotic probabilities

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the search for books that specifically address complex random variables, particularly those that can take on complex values rather than just probabilities in the complex range. The interest stems from a desire to integrate knowledge of complex analysis with statistics. The inquiry also extends to exotic probabilities, including those that can be complex-valued, exceed 1, or even be negative. The participant notes that most existing literature is found in physics papers, particularly in the context of quantum physics, and expresses a preference for more mathematical treatments of these topics. A referenced Wikipedia page is mentioned as a potential resource, highlighting the relevance of complex random variables in signal processing.

I am looking for books that have sections or even chapters devoted to complex random variables, or random variables that can take on complex values (NOT probabilities that are valued in the complex range, in this regard). On the other hand, if someone does know any books that contain material on exotic probabilities that would be neat too (in this case probability can be complex valued, greater than 1 or even negative). I got interested in this while brushing up on my complex analysis and reading a statistics book at the same time. Figured, why not try to combine the two in some way? I've seen other people have tried this, but most of the material I find are in physics papers and mostly are applied to quantum physics. If possible, I'd like to see more mathematical treatments of the topics. Thanks.

Hi, I have notice that Ashcroft, Mermin and Wei worked at a revised edition of the original solid state physics book (here). The book, however, seems to be never available. I have also read that the reason is related to some disputes related to copyright. Do you have any further information about it? Did you have the opportunity to get your hands on this revised edition? I am really curious about it, also considering that I am planning to buy the book in the near future... Thanks!
This is part 2 of my thread Collection of Free Online Math Books and Lecture Notes Here, we will consider physics and mathematical methods for physics resources. Now, this is a work in progress. Please feel free comment regarding items you want to be included, or if a link is broken etc. Note: I will not post links to other collections, each link will point you to a single item. :book:📚📒 [FONT=trebuchet ms]Introductory college/university physics College Physics, Openstax...
