This volume is dedicated to the memory of the late Oded Schramm (1961-2008), distinguished statistician. Throughout his life, Oded made profound and beautiful contributions to mathematics that will have a lasting influence.In these two volumes, Editors Itai Benjamini and Olle Haggstrom have collected some of his papers, supplemented with three survey papers by Steffen Rohde, Haggstrom and Cristophe Garban that further elucidate his work. The papers within are a representative collection that shows the breadth, depth, enthusiasm and clarity of his work, with sections on Geometry, Noise Sensitivity, Random Walks and Graph Limits, Percolation, and finally Schramm-Loewner Evolution. An introduction by the Editors and a comprehensive bibliography of Oded's publications complete the volume. The book will be of especial interest to researchers in probability and statistics, and in the history of these subjects.
