In and Out of Equilibrium : Probability with a Physics Flavor /

For more than two decades percolation theory, random walks, interacting parti­ cle systems and topics related to statistical mechanics have experienced inten­ sive growth. In the last several years, especially remarkable progress has been made in a number of directions, such as: Wulff constructions...
