In Episode IV after the Battle of Yavin there are four ships: Luke and Wedge in their X-wings, Han in the Falcon, and a Y-wing fighter. Who was in the remaining Y-wing ship?

It's pretty definite that more than just those four ships survived from the Alliance attack on the Death Star; others just aren't visible on screen. The Y-wing pilot has never been definitively identified. But, if you're the gambling kind, I'd say the smart money is on Keyan Farlander, a starfighter pilot introduced in the original X-wing game from LucasArts. Back in 1992, LucasArts published a novella starring Farlander that came with some copies of the game. The strategy guide for the game continues that story and places Farlander aboard a Y-wing fighter during the final assault on the Death Star. Farlander survives the battle, making him a good candidate for the Y-wing pilot seen at the end of the film.
