The Fourth International Conference on High Dimensional Probability (HDP) June 20-24, 2005 St. John's College campus at Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA The conferences on High Dimensional Probability continue a long tradition of conferences that began in the mid seventies under the title of "Probability in Banach Spaces". Remarkable advances have led to the creation or introduction of powerful tools, such as randomization, decoupling, moment and exponential inequalities, chaining, isoperimetry, concentration of measures and deviation probabilities which apply to areas well beyond those for which they were created. Gaussian processes techniques and methods from probability in Banach spaces have made a substantial impact on broad areas such as statistics, learning theory, theoretical computer sciences, convex geometry and statistical physics.
