Recent developments show that probability methods have become a
very powerful tool in such different areas as statistical physics,
dynamical systems, Riemannian geometry, group theory, harmonic
analysis, graph theory and computer science. This volume is an
outcome of the special semester 2001 - Random Walks held at the
Schroedinger Institute in Vienna, Austria. It contains original
research articles with non-trivial new approaches based on
applications of random walks and similar processes to Lie groups,
geometric flows, physical models on infinite graphs, random number
generators, Lyapunov exponents, geometric group theory, spectral
theory of graphs and potential theory. Highlights are the first
survey of the theory of the stochastic Loewner evolution and its
applications to percolation theory (a new rapidly developing and
very promising subject at the crossroads of probability,
statistical physics and harmonic analysis), surveys on expander
graphs, random matrices and quantum chaos, cellular automata and
symbolic dynamical systems, and others. The contributors to the
volume are the leading experts in the area. The book will provide a
valuable source both for active researchers and graduate students
in the respective fields.
