First edition of collection of papers on game theory. Octavo, original wrappers. Signed by mathematician W.H. Fleming on the title page, next to his name. Wendell Helms Fleming was a mathematician, specializing in geometrical analysis and stochastic differential equations. Fleming received in 1951 his PhD under Laurence Chisholm Young at the University of Wisconsin–Madison with a thesis entitled Boundary and related notions for generalized parametric surfaces. Fleming was a professor at Brown University, where he retired in 2009 as professor emeritus. Fleming was with Herbert Federer a pioneer of geometric measure theory. Later in his career, he worked on stochastic processes, stochastic differential equations and their applications in control theory. In 1976–1977 he was a Guggenheim Fellow. In 1982 he gave a plenary address (Optimal control of Markov Processes) at the ICM in Warsaw. In very good condition.
