Editore: Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 1997

Paperback. This book brings together a selection of the best lectures from many graduate workshops held at the Australian National Institute for Theoretical Physics in Adelaide. The lectures presented here describe subjects currently of great interest, generally at the interface between mathematics and physics, and also where suitable expositions did not previously exist at a level suitable for graduate students. Topics covered include quantum groups, the operator algebra approach to the integer quantum Hall effect, solvable lattice models and Hecke algebras, Yangevins, equivariant cohomology and symplectic geometry, and von Neumann invariants of covering spaces. Presents topics currently of great interest, generally at the interface between mathematics and physics, and also where suitable expositions did not previously exist at a level suitable for graduate students. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability. Codice articolo 9780521624909

Riassunto:

Graduate lectures on the interface between mathematics and physics.

Recensione: 'The presented selection of the best survey lectures among many graduate workshops held in Adelaide treats very interesting topics for current research and can be recommended to all readers interested in this modern field of mathematics.' European Mathematical Society
