随机过程可以被定义为随机变量的集合，这些随机变量由一些数学集合构成索引，这意味着随机过程中的每个随机变量都与集合中的一个元素唯一关联。<ref name="Parzen1999"/><ref name="GikhmanSkorokhod1969page1"/>用于索引随机变量的集合称为“索引集”。从历史上看，索引集是实数的一些子集，例如自然数，为索引集提供了对时间的解释。<ref name="doob1953stochasticP46to47"/> 集合中的每个随机变量都取值于相同的数学空间中，称为“状态空间（state space）”。例如，这个状态空间可以是整数、实数或维欧几里德空间。<ref name="doob1953stochasticP46to47"/> '''增量'''是随机过程在两个索引值之间变化的量，通常被解释为两个时间点。<ref name="KarlinTaylor2012page27"/><ref name="Applebaum2004page1337"/>由于随机性，随机过程可以有许多结果，随机过程的单个结果被称为“抽样函数”或“实现”。<ref name="Lamperti1977page1"/><ref name="RogersWilliams2000page121b"/>

随机过程可以用不同的方法进行分类，例如，根据其状态空间、索引集或随机变量之间的相关性。一种常见的分类方法是通过索引集和状态空间的基数进行分类。<ref name="Florescu2014page2942">{{cite book|author=Ionut Florescu|title=Probability and Stochastic Processes|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=Z5xEBQAAQBAJ&pg=PR22|year=2014|publisher=John Wiley & Sons|isbn=978-1-118-59320-2|pages=294, 295}}</ref><ref name="KarlinTaylor2012page262">{{cite book|author1=Samuel Karlin|author2=Howard E.

在英语中，“随机”一词最初用作形容词，其定义是“与推测有关”，源于一个希腊语词，意思是“瞄准一个目标，猜测”，而牛津英语词典将1662年作为其最早出现的年份。<ref name="OxfordStochastic2">{Cite OED | random}</ref>雅各布·伯努利 Jakob Bernoulli在他关于概率的著作《猜想的艺术》（Ars conquectandi）中使用了“猜想的艺术或随机的艺术”（“Ars Conjectandi sive Stochastice”）这个短语，该著作最初于1713年以拉丁文出版。<ref name="Sheĭnin2006page52">{{cite book|author=O.

根据牛津英语词典的研究，英语中和随机含义相同的这个词的早期出现，可以追溯到16世纪，而早期记录的类似用法开始于14世纪，它是一个名词，意思是“浮躁、极速、力量或暴力(在骑马、奔跑、惊人等等)”。这个单词本身来自中世纪法语单词，意思是“速度，匆忙” ，它可能来源于法语动词，意思是“奔跑”或“疾驰”。随机（random）过程这个术语的第一次书面出现早于随机（stochastic）过程，牛津英语词典也把它作为同义词，并在弗朗西斯·埃奇沃思1888年发表的一篇文章中使用。

根据《牛津英语词典》，“随机”一词在英语中的早期出现及其目前的含义——即与机会或运气有关，可以追溯到16世纪，而更早的使用记录始于14世纪，是一个名词，意思是 "急躁、巨大的速度、力量或暴力（在骑马、跑步、击球等方面）"。这个词本身来自一个中古法语单词，意思是 "速度、匆忙"，它可能是从法语动词“奔跑”或“飞奔”衍生而来。随机过程（random process）一词的首次书面出现早于随机过程（stochastic process），《牛津英语词典》也将其作为同义词，并被弗朗西斯·艾其沃斯 Francis Edgeworth 于1888年发表的一篇文章中使用。<ref name="OxfordRandom2">{Cite OED | random}</ref>

===随机过程 Stochastic process===
随机过程被定义为在一个公共概率空间<math>(\Omega, \mathcal{F}, P)</math>上定义的随机变量集合，其中<math>\Omega</math> 是[https://wiki.swarma.org/index.php/%E6%A0%B7%E6%9C%AC%E7%A9%BA%E9%97%B4 样本空间]，<math>\mathcal{F}</math>是一个<math>\sigma</math>-代数，<math>P</math>是概率测度；而随机变量，由某个集合<math>T</math>索引，所有值都取同一个数学空间<math>S</math>，对于某些<math>\sigma</math>-代数<math>\sigma</math><ref name="Lamperti1977page12" />
<center><math>
换言之，对于给定的概率空间<math>（\Omega，\mathcal{F}，P）</math>和可测空间<math>（S，Sigma）</math>，随机过程是一个值为<math>S</math>的随机变量的集合，可以写成：<ref name="Florescu2014page2932" /><center><math>

\{X(t):t\in T \}.
历史上，在许多自然科学问题中，一个点<math>t\in T</math> 具有时间的意义，因此，<math>X(t)</math>表示是一个在时间<math>t</math>的随机变量。<ref name="Borovkov2013page528">{{cite book|author=Alexander A.

===索引集===
集合<math>T</math>称为“索引集”<ref name="Parzen19992" /><ref name="Florescu2014page2942" />或“参数集”<ref name="Lamperti1977page12" /><ref name="Skorokhod2005page932">{{cite book|author=Valeriy Skorokhod|title=Basic Principles and Applications of Probability Theory|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=dQkYMjRK3fYC|year=2005|publisher=Springer Science & Business Media|isbn=978-3-540-26312-8|pages=93, 94}}</ref>。通常，这个集合是实数的一个子集，例如自然数或一个区间，使集合<math>T</math>能够解释时间。<ref name="doob1953stochasticP46to472" />除了这些集合，索引集<math>T</math>可以是其他线性有序集或更一般的数学集，<ref name="doob1953stochasticP46to472" /><ref name="Billingsley2008page4822" />例如笛卡尔平面<math>R^2</math>或<math>n</math>维欧几里得空间，其中t中的元素可以表示空间中的一个点。<ref name="KarlinTaylor2012page272" /><ref>{{cite book|author1=Donald L.

===样本函数 Sample function===
===状态空间 ===
随机过程的数学空间<math>S</math>称为其“状态空间”。这个数学空间可以用整数、实数、<math>n</math>维欧几里得空间、复杂平面或更抽象的数学空间来定义。状态空间是用反映随机过程可以采用的不同值的元素来定义的进程。<ref name="doob1953stochasticP46to472" /><ref name="GikhmanSkorokhod1969page12" /><ref name="Lamperti1977page12" /><ref name="Florescu2014page2942" /><ref name="Brémaud2014page1202" />

===增量===
随机过程的增量是同一随机过程的两个随机变量之间的差值。对于一个指数集可以解释为时间的随机过程，增量是随机过程在某个时间段内的变化量。例如，如果<math>\{X（t）：t\in t\}</math> 是具有状态空间的随机过程<math>S</math>且索引集<math>T=[0,\infty)</math>中的任意两个非负数<math>t_1\in [0,\infty)</math>和<math>t_2\in [0,\infty)</math>且<math>t_1\leq t_2</math>，差异<math>X{tu 2}-X{t_1}</math>是一个称为增量的<math>S</math>值随机变量。<ref name="KarlinTaylor2012page272" /><ref name="Applebaum2004page13372" />当对增量感兴趣时，通常状态空间<math>S</math>是实数或自然数，但它可以是<math>n</math>维欧几里德空间或更抽象的空间，如巴拿赫空间 。<ref name="Applebaum2004page13372" />

===鞅===
'''鞅（Martingale）'''是一个离散时间或连续时间的随机过程，其性质是在给定过程的当前值和所有过去值的情况下，每个未来值的条件期望值等于当前值。在离散时间中，如果此属性适用于下一个值，则它适用于所有未来值。鞅的精确数学定义需要另外两个条件与过滤的数学概念相结合，这与随时间推移增加可用信息的直觉有关。鞅通常被定义为实值，<ref name="Klebaner2005page652">{{cite book|author=Fima C.

1900年在巴黎举行的国际数学家大会上，大卫-希尔伯特（David Hilbert）提出了一份数学问题的清单，其中他的第六个问题要求对物理和概率的公理化进行数学处理。<ref name="Bingham20002" />大约在20世纪初，数学家们发展了测度论，这是研究函数积分的数学分支，其中两位创始人是法国数学家亨利-勒贝斯格（Henri Lebesgue）和米尔-博莱尔É（mile Borel。）1925年，另一位法国数学家P保罗·莱维（aul Lévy出）版了第一本使用测度论思想的概率论书籍。<ref name="Bingham20002" />
20世纪20年代，苏联的数学家们对概率论做出了重大贡献，比如谢尔盖-伯恩斯坦（Sergei Bernstein），亚历山大-辛钦（Aleksandr Khinchin，Khinchin这个名字也用英语写成（或音译成）Khintchine。<ref name="Doob19342" />）和安德烈-科尔莫戈罗夫（Andrei Kolmogorov）。<ref name="Cramer19762" /> 科尔莫戈罗夫于1984年发表了他的一次尝试，为概率论提出一个基于度量理论的数学基础。<ref name="KendallBatchelor1990page332">{{cite journal|last1=Kendall|first1=D.

===现代概率论的诞生 Birth of modern probability theory===
1933年，德烈-科尔莫戈罗夫（Andrei Kolmogorov在）德国出版了一本关于概率论基础的书，名为《概率计算的基本概念》，后来翻译成英文，1950年出版，作为概率论的基础。这本书的出版现在被广泛认为是现代概率论的诞生，从此概率论和随机过程理论成为数学的一部分。<ref name="Bingham20002" /><ref name="Cramer19762" />
在科尔莫戈罗夫的书出版后，辛钦和科尔莫戈洛夫以及其他数学家如约瑟夫-杜布（Joseph Doob）、威廉-费勒（William Feller）、莫里斯-弗雷谢（Maurice Fréchet）、保罗-莱维（Paul Lévy）、沃尔夫冈-多布林（Wolfgang Doeblin）和哈拉尔-克拉梅尔（Harald Cramér）<ref name="Bingham20002" /><ref name="Cramer19762" />，都在概率论和随机过程方面做了进一步的基础工作，

第二次世界大战后，概率论和随机过程的研究得到了数学家的更多关注，在概率论和数学的许多领域做出了重大贡献，并开创了新的领域统计学。<ref name="Cramer19762" /><ref name="Meyer20092">{{cite journal|last1=Meyer|first1=Paul-André|title=Stochastic Processes from 1950 to the Present|journal=Electronic Journal for History of Probability and Statistics|volume=5|issue=1|year=2009|pages=1–42}}</ref>从20世纪40年代开始，伊藤清司（Kiyosi Itô）发表了发展随机微积分领域的论文，其中设计基于维纳或布朗运动过程的随机积分和随机[https://wiki.swarma.org/index.php/%E5%BE%AE%E5%88%86%E6%96%B9%E7%A8%8B 微分方程]。<ref name="Ito1998Prize2">{{cite journal|title=Kiyosi Itô receives Kyoto Prize|journal=Notices of the AMS|volume=45|issue=8|year=1998|pages=981–982}}</ref>
同样从20世纪40年代开始，随机过程（尤其是鞅）与数学领域的势理论之间建立了联系，角谷静夫（Shizuo Kakutani）的早期思想和后来约瑟夫（Joseph Doob）的工作都是如此。<ref name="Meyer20092" />在20世纪50年代尔伯特-亨特G（ilbert Hunt）完成了被创性的进一步工作，他把马尔科夫过程和势能理论联系起来，这对莱维过程的理论产生了重大影响，并使人们对用伊藤开发的方法研究马尔科夫过程产生了更多兴趣。<ref name="JarrowProtter20042" /><ref name="Bertoin1998pageVIIIandIX2">{{cite book|author=Jean Bertoin|title=Lévy Processes|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=ftcsQgMp5cUC&pg=PR8|year=1998|publisher=Cambridge University Press|isbn=978-0-521-64632-1|page=viii and ix}}</ref><ref name="Steele2012page1762">{{cite book|author=J.

1953年，约瑟夫-杜布（Joseph Doob）出版了《随机过程》一书，这本书对随机过程理论产生了重大影响，并强调了测度理论在概率论中的重要性。<ref name="Meyer20092" /><ref name="Bingham20052" />杜布还要发展了鞅理论，后来Paul-André Meyer也作出了重大贡献。早期的工作是由谢尔盖-伯恩斯坦（Sergei Bernstein）、保罗-莱维（Paul Lévy）和让-维尔（Jean Ville）进行的，后者对随机过程采用了“鞅”一词。<ref name="HallHeyde2014page12">{{cite book|author1=P.

概率的其他领域也被发展和用于随机过程的研究，其中一个主要方法是大偏差理论。<ref name="Meyer20092" /> 该理论在统计物理等领域有许多应用，其核心思想至少可以追溯到20世纪30年代。在20世纪60年代和70年代后期，苏联的亚历山大·温策尔（Alexander Wentzell）和美国的门罗-D-唐斯克（Monroe D.Donsker）以及斯里尼瓦萨-瓦拉丹（Srinivasa Varadhan）完成了基础工作，<ref name="Ellis1995page982">{{cite journal|last1=Ellis|first1=Richard S.|title=An overview of the theory of large deviations and applications to statistical mechanics|journal=Scandinavian Actuarial Journal|volume=1995|issue=1|year=1995|page=98|issn=0346-1238|doi=10.1080/03461238.1995.10413952}}</ref>后来瓦拉丹获得了2007年阿贝尔奖。<ref name="RaussenSkau20082">{{cite journal|last1=Raussen|first1=Martin|last2=Skau|first2=Christian|title=Interview with Srinivasa Varadhan|journal=Notices of the AMS|volume=55|issue=2|year=2008|pages=238–246}}</ref>在上世纪90年代和21世纪，Schramm-Loewner演化<ref name="HenkelKarevski2012page1132">{{cite book|author1=Malte Henkel|author2=Dragi Karevski|title=Conformal Invariance: an Introduction to Loops, Interfaces and Stochastic Loewner Evolution|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=fnCQWd0GEZ8C&pg=PA113|year=2012|publisher=Springer Science & Business Media|isbn=978-3-642-27933-1|page=113}}</ref>和粗略路径<ref name="FrizVictoir2010page5712" />理论被引入和发展来研究概率论中的随机过程和其他数学对象，这促使菲尔兹奖分别在2008年被授予德林-维尔纳W（endelin Werner）<ref name="Werner2004Fields2">{{cite journal|title=2006 Fields Medals Awarded|journal=Notices of the AMS|volume=53|issue=9|year=2015|pages=1041–1044}}</ref>，在2014年被授予马丁-海勒（Martin Hairer）<ref name="Hairer2004Fields2">{{cite journal|last1=Quastel|first1=Jeremy|title=The Work of the 2014 Fields Medalists|journal=Notices of the AMS|volume=62|issue=11|year=2015|pages=1341–1344}}</ref>。
随机过程理论仍然是研究的焦点，每年都有关于随机过程的国际会议。<ref name="BlathImkeller20112" /><ref name="Applebaum2004page13362" />
===特定随机过程的发现===
虽然辛钦在1930年代给出了随机过程的数学定义<ref>Doob, Joseph (1934). "Stochastic Processes and Statistics". ''Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America''. '''20''' (6): 376–379.

ISSN 0306-7734.</ref>。一些随机过程的族，如点过程或更新过程，有着漫长而复杂的历史，可以追溯到几个世纪前<ref>D.J. Daley; D. Vere-Jones (2006). ''An Introduction to the Theory of Point Processes: Volume I: Elementary Theory and Methods''. Springer Science & Business Media. pp. 1–4. ISBN <bdi>978-0-387-21564-8</bdi>.</ref>。
==== 伯努利过程 ====
伯努利过程可以作为抛出有偏的硬币的数学模型，它可能是第一个被研究的随机过程<ref name="Florescu2014page3012" />。这个过程是一连串独立的伯努利试验<ref>Bertsekas, Dimitri P.; Tsitsiklis, John N. (2002). ''Introduction to Probability''. Athena Scientific. p. 273. ISBN <bdi>978-1-886529-40-3</bdi>.</ref>，伯努利是以杰克-伯努利（Jackob Bernoulli）的名字命名的，他用这些试验来研究机会博弈，包括克里斯蒂安-惠更斯（Christiaan Huygens）早先提出和研究的概率问题<ref name="Hald2005page2212" />。伯努利的工作，包括伯努利过程，于1713年发表在他的《猜想论》一书中。
<br>
==== 随机游走过程 ====
1905年，卡尔-皮尔逊（Karl Pearson）在提出一个描述平面上随机行走的问题时，创造了随机游走这个术语，其动机是在生物学中的应用，但这种涉及随机行走的问题在其他领域已经得到研究。几个世纪前研究的某些赌博问题也可以被视为涉及随机漫步的问题。<ref name="Weiss2006page12" /><ref>Joel Louis Lebowitz (1984). ''Nonequilibrium phenomena II: from stochastics to hydrodynamics''. North-Holland Pub. pp. 8–10. ISBN <bdi>978-0-444-86806-0</bdi>.</ref>例如，被称为 "赌徒的毁灭"的问题是基于一个简单的随机行走<ref name="KarlinTaylor20122" /><ref name="Florescu2014page3732" />，是一个具有吸收障碍的随机行走的例子。<ref name="Seneta2006page12" /><ref name="Ibe2013page112" />帕斯卡尔、费马和惠恩斯都给出了这个问题的数值解决方案，但没有详细说明他们的方法<ref name="Hald2005page2212" />，然后雅各布-伯努利（Jakob Bernoulli）和亚伯拉罕-德莫伊夫尔（ Abraham de Moivre）提出了更详细的解决方案。
对于n维整数格中的随机行走，乔治·波利亚（George Pólya）在1919年和1921年发表了工作，他研究了对称随机行走返回到格子中先前位置的概率。波利亚表明，一个对称的随机行走，在格子的任何方向前进的概率都是相同的，在一维和二维中会以概率1返回到格子中的前一个位置，但在三维或更高维度中概率为零<ref>Ionut Florescu (2014).

Clarendon Press. p. 111. ISBN <bdi>978-0-19-853788-5</bdi>.</ref>。
==== 维纳过程 ====
维纳过程或布朗运动过程起源于不同的领域，包括统计学、金融学和物理学<ref name="JarrowProtter20042" />。1880年，托瓦尔·蒂勒（Thorvald Thiele）写了一篇关于最小二乘法的论文，他用这个过程来研究时间序列分析中模型的误差。<ref>Thiele, Thorwald N. (1880). "Om Anvendelse af mindste Kvadraterbs Methode i nogle Tilfælde, hvoren Komplikation af visse Slags uensartede tilfældige Fejlkilder giver Fejleneen "systematisk" Karakter". ''Kongelige Danske Videnskabernes Selskabs Skrifter''. Series 5 (12): 381–408.</ref><ref>Hald, Anders (1981). "T. N. Thiele's Contributions to Statistics". ''International Statistical Review / Revue Internationale de Statistique''. '''49''' (1): 1–20. doi:10.2307/1403034. ISSN 0306-7734. JSTOR 1403034</ref><ref name=":2">Lauritzen, Steffen L. (1981). "Time Series Analysis in 1880: A Discussion of Contributions Made by T.N. Thiele". ''International Statistical Review / Revue Internationale de Statistique''. '''49''' (3): 319–320. doi:10.2307/1402616. ISSN 0306-7734. JSTOR 1402616.</ref>这项工作现在被认为是卡尔曼滤波的统计方法的早期发现，但这项工作在很大程度上被忽略了。人们认为蒂勒的论文中的观点太过先进，以至于当时更广泛的数学和统计学界都不理解。<ref name=":2" />
法国数学家路易斯·巴施里耶 (Louis Bachelier）在他1900年的论文中使用了维纳过程<ref>Bachelier, Luis (1900). "Théorie de la spéculation" (PDF). ''Ann. Sci. Éc. Norm. Supér.'' Serie 3, 17: 21–89. doi:10.24033/asens.476</ref><ref>Bachelier, Luis (1900). "The Theory of Speculation". ''Ann. Sci. Éc. Norm. Supér''. Serie 3, 17: 21–89 (Engl. translation by David R. May, 2011). doi:10.24033/asens.476</ref>以模拟巴黎证券交易所的价格变化，<ref>Courtault, Jean-Michel; Kabanov, Yuri; Bru, Bernard; Crepel, Pierre; Lebon, Isabelle; Le Marchand, Arnaud (2000). "Louis Bachelier on the Centenary of Theorie de la Speculation" (PDF). ''Mathematical Finance''. '''10''' (3): 339–353. doi:10.1111/1467-9965.00098. ISSN 0960-1627.</ref>但他并不知道蒂勒的工作。<ref name="JarrowProtter20042" />有人猜测巴施里耶从朱尔斯·雷格诺尔（Jules Regnault）的随机漫步模型中汲取了灵感，但Bachelier并没有引用他的话<ref name=":3">Jovanovic, Franck (2012). "Bachelier: Not the forgotten forerunner he has been depicted as. An analysis of the dissemination of Louis Bachelier's work in economics" (PDF). ''The European Journal of the History of Economic Thought''. '''19''' (3): 431–451. doi:10.1080/09672567.2010.540343. ISSN 0967-2567. S2CID 154003579.</ref>，而巴施里耶的论文现在被认为是金融数学领域的先驱。
人们普遍认为，巴施里耶的作品没有获得什么关注，被遗忘了几十年，直到20世纪50年代被伦纳德-萨维奇重新发现，然后在1964年被翻译成英文后变得更加流行。但这项工作在数学界从未被遗忘，因为巴施里耶在1912年出版了一本书，详细介绍了他的想法，<ref name=":3" />这本书被包括杜布、费勒<ref name=":3" />和科尔莫戈罗夫<ref name="JarrowProtter20042" />在内的数学家所引用。这本书仍然被引用着，但后来从1960年代开始，当经济学家开始引用巴施里耶的工作时，巴施里耶的原始论文开始被引用得多于他的书<ref name=":3" />。
1905年，阿尔伯特-爱因斯坦发表了一篇论文，他研究了布朗运动或运动的物理观察，通过使用气体动力学理论的思想来解释液体中颗粒的看似随机的运动。爱因斯坦推导出一个被称为扩散方程的微分方程，用于描述在某一空间区域找到一个粒子的概率。在爱因斯坦发表第一篇关于布朗运动的论文后不久，马里安-斯莫鲁奇夫斯基（ Marian Smoluchowski）发表了他引用爱因斯坦的作品，但他写道，他通过使用不同的方法独立得出了同等的结果<ref>Brush, Stephen G. (1968). "A history of random processes". ''Archive for History of Exact Sciences''. '''5''' (1): 25. doi:10.1007/BF00328110. ISSN 0003-9519. S2CID 117623580.</ref>。
爱因斯坦的工作，以及让-佩兰获得的实验结果，后来在20世纪20年代启发了诺伯特-维纳<ref>Brush, Stephen G. (1968). "A history of random processes". ''Archive for History of Exact Sciences''. '''5''' (1): 1–36. doi:10.1007/BF00328110. ISSN 0003-9519. S2CID 117623580.</ref>，他使用珀西-丹尼尔发展的一种度量理论和傅里叶分析来证明维纳过程作为一个数学对象的存在<ref name="JarrowProtter20042" />。
==== 泊松过程 ====
泊松过程是以西梅翁·泊松（Siméon Poisson）的名字命名的，因为其定义涉及泊松分布，但泊松从未研究过这个过程<ref name="Stirzaker20002" /><ref>D.J. Daley; D. Vere-Jones (2006). ''An Introduction to the Theory of Point Processes: Volume I: Elementary Theory and Methods''. Springer Science & Business Media. pp. 8–9. ISBN <bdi>978-0-387-21564-8</bdi>.</ref>。有许多关于泊松过程的早期使用或发现的说法<ref name="Stirzaker20002" /><ref name="GuttorpThorarinsdottir20122" />。在20世纪初，泊松过程会在不同的情况下独立出现<ref name="Stirzaker20002" /><ref name="GuttorpThorarinsdottir20122" />。1903年在瑞典，菲利普-伦德伯格（ Filip Lundberg）发表了一篇论文，其中包含的工作现在被认为是基本的和开创性的，他提出用一个同质泊松过程来模拟保险索赔<ref>Embrechts, Paul; Frey, Rüdiger; Furrer, Hansjörg (2001). "Stochastic processes in insurance and finance". ''Stochastic Processes: Theory and Methods''. Handbook of Statistics. Vol. 19. p. 367. doi:10.1016/S0169-7161(01)19014-0. ISBN <bdi>978-0444500144</bdi>. ISSN 0169-7161.</ref><ref>Cramér, Harald (1969). "Historical review of Filip Lundberg's works on risk theory". ''Scandinavian Actuarial Journal''. '''1969''' (sup3): 6–12. doi:10.1080/03461238.1969.10404602. ISSN 0346-1238.</ref>。
另一项发现发生在1909年的丹麦，当时尔朗（A.K.Erlang）在为有限时间间隔内的来电数量开发一个数学模型时得出了泊松分布。尔朗当时并不知道泊松的早期工作，他假设每个时间间隔内到达的电话数量是相互独立的。然后，他发现了极限情况，这实际上是将泊松分布重塑为二项分布的极限<ref name="Stirzaker20002" />。
1910年，欧内斯特-卢瑟福（Ernest Rutherford ）和汉斯-盖格（Hans Geiger ）发表了关于α粒子计数的实验结果。在他们工作的推动下，哈里-贝特曼（Harry Bateman）研究了计数问题，并推导出泊松概率作为一组微分方程的解，从而独立发现了泊松过程。<ref name="Stirzaker20002" /> 在这之后，有许多关于泊松过程的研究和应用，但其早期历史很复杂，生物学家、生态学家、工程师和各种物理科学家在众多领域对该过程的各种应用已经说明了这一点<ref name="Stirzaker20002" />。
==== 马尔可夫过程 ====
马尔可夫过程和马尔可夫链是以安德烈-马尔可夫命名的，他在20世纪初研究了马尔可夫链<ref name=":4">Gagniuc, Paul A. (2017). ''Markov Chains: From Theory to Implementation and Experimentation''. NJ: John Wiley & Sons. pp. 2–8. ISBN <bdi>978-1-119-38755-8</bdi>.</ref>。马尔可夫对研究独立随机序列的扩展很感兴趣<ref name=":4" />。在他于1906年发表的第一篇关于马尔可夫链的论文中，马尔可夫表明，在某些条件下，马尔可夫链的平均结果会收敛到一个固定的数值向量，因此证明了一个没有独立假设的弱大数法则，<ref name=":5">Gagniuc, Paul A.

'''101''' (2): 92–96. doi:10.1511/2013.101.92.</ref> ，而独立假设曾被普遍认为是这种数学定律成立的条件之一<ref name=":8" />。 马尔可夫后来用马尔可夫链来研究亚历山大-普希金写的《欧仁-奥涅金》中元音的分布，并证明了这种链的中心极限定理<ref name=":5" /><ref name=":6" />。
1912年，庞加莱（Poincaré）研究了有限群上的马尔科夫链，目的是研究重排。马尔科夫链的其他早期应用包括保罗（Paul）和塔季扬娜-埃伦费斯特（Tatyana Ehrenfest）在1907年提出的扩散模型，以及弗朗西斯-高尔顿（Francis Galton）和亨利-威廉-沃森（Henry William Watson）在1873年提出的分支过程，比马尔科夫的工作更早。<ref name=":6" /> <ref name=":7" />在高尔顿和沃森的工作之后，人们发现他们的分支过程在大约三十年前就被伊雷内-朱尔·比内梅（Irénée-Jules Bienaymé）独立发现和研究了<ref>Seneta, E. (1998). "I.J. Bienaymé [1796-1878]: Criticality, Inequality, and Internationalization". ''International Statistical Review / Revue Internationale de Statistique''. '''66''' (3): 291–292. doi:10.2307/1403518. ISSN 0306-7734. JSTOR 1403518.</ref>。从1928年开始，莫里斯·弗雷歇（Maurice Fréchet）开始对马尔科夫链感兴趣，最终导致他在1938年发表了一篇关于马尔科夫链的详细研究<ref name=":6" /><ref>Bru, B.; Hertz, S. (2001). "Maurice Fréchet". ''Statisticians of the Centuries''. pp. 331–334. doi:10.1007/978-1-4613-0179-0_71. ISBN <bdi>978-0-387-95283-3</bdi>.</ref>。
安德雷·柯尔莫哥洛夫（Andrei Kolmogorov）在1931年的一篇论文中发展了早期连续时间马尔可夫过程的大部分理论<ref name="Cramer19762" /><ref name="KendallBatchelor1990page332" />。柯尔莫哥洛夫部分受到了路易斯·巴施里耶（Louis Bachelier）1900年关于股票市场波动的工作以及诺伯特·维纳（Norbert Wiener）关于爱因斯坦布朗运动模型的工作的启发。<ref name="KendallBatchelor1990page332" /><ref>Marc Barbut; Bernard Locker; Laurent Mazliak (2016). ''Paul Lévy and Maurice Fréchet: 50 Years of Correspondence in 107 Letters''. Springer London. p. 5. ISBN <bdi>978-1-4471-7262-8</bdi>.</ref> 他引入并研究了一组被称为扩散过程的特殊马尔可夫过程，然后在其上推导了一组描述该过程的微分方程<ref name="KendallBatchelor1990page332" /><ref>Valeriy Skorokhod (2005). ''Basic Principles and Applications of Probability Theory''. Springer Science & Business Media. p. 146. ISBN <bdi>978-3-540-26312-8</bdi>.</ref>。独立于柯尔莫哥洛夫的工作，悉尼-查普曼（Sydney Chapman）在1928年的一篇论文中，以比柯尔莫哥洛夫更不严格的数学方式，在研究布朗运动时得出了一个方程<ref>Bernstein, Jeremy (2005). "Bachelier". ''American Journal of Physics''. '''73''' (5): 398–396. Bibcode:2005AmJPh..73..395B. doi:10.1119/1.1848117. ISSN 0002-9505.</ref>，现在称为查普曼-科尔莫戈罗夫方程。这些微分方程现在被称为科尔莫戈罗夫方程<ref>William J. Anderson (2012). ''Continuous-Time Markov Chains: An Applications-Oriented Approach''. Springer Science & Business Media. p. vii. ISBN <bdi>978-1-4612-3038-0</bdi>.</ref>或科尔莫戈罗夫-查普曼方程<ref>Kendall, D. G.; Batchelor, G. K.; Bingham, N. H.; Hayman, W. K.; Hyland, J. M. E.; Lorentz, G. G.; Moffatt, H. K.; Parry, W.; Razborov, A. A.; Robinson, C. A.; Whittle, P. (1990).

ISSN 0024-6093.</ref>。对马尔科夫过程的基础作出重大贡献的其他数学家包括从1930年代开始的威廉-费勒（William Feller），后来又有从1950年代开始的尤金-代金（Eugene Dynkin）。
==== 莱维过程 ====
像维纳过程和泊松过程一样的莱维过程由1930年带学习他们的保罗·莱维（Paul Lévy）命名<ref name="Applebaum2004page13362" />，但是它们与无限可分分布的联系可以追溯到20世纪20年代<ref name="Bertoin1998pageVIII2" />。这一结果后来由莱维于1934年在更一般的条件下推导出来，然后辛钦（Khinchin）在1937年独立地给出了这一特征函数的另一种形式<ref name="Cramer19762" /><ref>David Applebaum (2004). ''Lévy Processes and Stochastic Calculus''. Cambridge University Press. p. 67. ISBN <bdi>978-0-521-83263-2</bdi>.</ref>。除了莱维、辛钦和柯尔莫哥洛夫之外，福内梯B（runo de Finetti）和伊藤清（Kiyosi Itô）也对莱维过程的理论做出了早期的基本贡献<ref name="Bertoin1998pageVIII2" />。
