Preface

This manuscript is the third volume of the “CEMPI subseries” common to Lecture Notes in Mathematics and Lecture Notes in Physics. Stochastic geometry can be succinctly described as the study of random spatial patterns. It is traditionally considered to have been born in the eighteenth century with the well-known Buffon’s needle problem, and it has received growing attention from the mathematical community during the second part of the twentieth century. Nowadays, stochastic geometry draws on a large variety of subdomains of mathematics such as point processes, geometric random graphs, percolation, convex geometry, random fields and spatial statistics and admits a wide range of applications.
