Abstract

One of the most rewarding aspects of working on random field geometry is that one not only gets to do nice mathematics (an adjective with which we assume you agree if you have got this far in the notes) but one also gets to see the theory applied. Furthermore, the time delay from theory to applications is often measured in months, rather than the years or decades that typically link theory and practice. This close connection works in both directions: As new theory leads to new applications, new subject matter needs lead to the development of additional theory.
