Paul Lévy is one of the greatest mathematicians of our century and can be considered, with A N Kolmogorov, to be the forefather of the modern theory of stochastic processes.

Paul Lévy was an extraordinarily productive mathematician: in parallel with and independently from the Soviet mathematicians Kolmogorov and Khinchin, he discovered the major part of what is known today as the theory of stochastic processes.
