Part of the book series: Trends in Mathematics ((TM))

Abstract

We review some recent developments in studying fractal and analytic properties of Gaussian random fields. It is shown that various forms of strong local nondeterminism are useful for studying many fine properties of Gaussian random fields. A list of open questions is included.
