Seminar on Stochastic Analysis, Random Fields and Applications IV

This volume contains the Proceedings of the Fourth Seminar on Stochastic Analy­ sis, Random Fields and Applications, which took place at the Centro Stefano Fran­ scini (Monte Verita) in Ascona (Ticino), Switzerland, from May 20 to 24, 2002. The first three editions of this conference occured in 1993, 1996 and 1999.
