Notes:
There has been considerable interest in obtaining discrete results for random surfaces. Standard results have been published in journals of physics or engineering which have emphasised the applications. This paper gives a detailed background of the mathematical methods needed so that the central connection, namely truncated random variables, between these standard results can be understood. Distributions of discrete peak measures are obtained from the distributions of discrete profile measures of a random Gaussian surface by applying results for the distributions of truncated random variables. This enable the moments to be obtained from known results for the truncated distributions.
