Statistical Physics and Dynamical Systems: Rigorous Results

This volume contains most of the invited papers of the Second Colloquium and Workshop on "Random Fields": Rigorous Results in Statistical Mechanics" held in K8szeg, Hungary between August 26 and September 1, 1984. Invited papers whose authors could finally not attend the Colloquium are also included.
The Colloquium was organized by the generous sponsor- ship of the International Union for Pure and Applied Phys- ics, the International Workshop Committee for Theoretical Physics, the International Association of Mathematical Phys- ics, the Hungarian Academy of Sciences and the Janos Bolyai Mathematical Society.
Members of the International Program Committee were R. L. Dobrushin, A. Jaffe, J. L. Lebowitz, D. Ruelle, Ya. G. Si'lai. The Organizing Committee consisted of J. Fritz, D. Szasz (co-chairmen), D. Petz (secretary), A. Kramli, G.
Lippner, P. Lukacs, P. Major, A. Slit8, N. Simanyi, A. Vetier. There were 112 participants from 21 countries represent- ing all the six continents. There were altogether 22 forty- five minute invited talks and 63 ten minute contributed papers. The Workshop was organized on the last two days of the Colloquium. It mainly concerned topics most interesting for Hungarian physicists and, moreover, its program ensured additional space for discussions.
We express our sincere gratitude to Denes Petz for his careful work as the technical e ~ i t o r of this volume and to Zsuzsa Er8 for her excellent and rapid retyping of several manuscripts.
