The intersection of probability and physics has been a rich and
explosive area of growth in the past two decades, specifically
covering such subjects as percolation theory, random walks,
interacting particle systems, and various topics related to
statistical mechanics. In the last several years, substantial
progress has been made in a number of directions: fluctuations of
2-dimensional growth processes, Wulf constructions in higher
dimensions for percolation, Potts and Ising models, classification
of random walks in random environments, the introduction of the
stochastic Loewner equation, the rigorous proof of intersection
exponents for planar Brownian motion, and finally the proof of
conformal invariance for critical percolation on the triangular
lattice. This volume consists of a collection of invited articles,
written by some of the most distinguished probabilists in the
above-mentioned areas, most of whom were personally responsible for
advances in the various subfields of probability. All of the
articles are an outgrowth of the Fourth Brazilian School of
Probability, held in Mambucaba, Brazil, August 2000. Contributors:
