Book Description
The Institute for Theoretical and Experimental Physics (ITEP) is internationally recognized for achievements in various branches of theoretical physics. For many years, the seminars at ITEP have been among the main centers of scientific life in Moscow. This volume is a collection of articles by participants of the seminar on mathematical physics that has been held at ITEP since 1983. This is the second such collection; the first was published in the same series, AMS Translations, Series 2, vol. 191. The papers in the volume are devoted to several mathematical topics that strongly influenced modern theoretical physics. Among these topics are cohomology and representations of infinite Lie algebras and superalgebras, Hitchin and Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov-Bernard systems, and the theory of $D$-modules. The book is intended for graduate students and research mathematicians working in algebraic geometry, representation theory, and mathematical physics.
L. D. Faddeev's Seminar on Mathematical Physics

Release : 2000
Category : Mathematics
ISBN : 9780821821336
Book Description
Professor L. D. Faddeev's seminar at Steklov Mathematical Institute (St. Petersburg, Russia) has a long history of over 30 years of intensive work which shaped modern mathematical physics. This collection, honoring Professor Faddeev's 65th anniversary, has been prepared by his students and colleagues. Topics covered in the volume include classical and quantum integrable systems (both analytic and algebraic aspects), quantum groups and generalizations, quantum field theory, and deformation quantization. Included is a history of the seminar highlighting important developments, such as the invention of the quantum inverse scattering method and of quantum groups. The book will serve nicely as a comprehensive, up-to-date resource on the topic.

Book Description
Articles in this collection are devoted to modern problems of topology, geometry, mathematical physics, and integrable systems, and they are based on talks given at the famous Novikov's seminar at the Steklov Institute of Mathematics in Moscow in 2012-2014. The articles cover many aspects of seemingly unrelated areas of modern mathematics and mathematical physics; they reflect the main scientific interests of the organizer of the seminar, Sergey Petrovich Novikov. The volume is suitable for graduate students and researchers interested in the corresponding areas of mathematics and physics.
Pseudoperiodic Topology
Author : Vladimir Igorevich Arnolʹd
Publisher : American Mathematical Soc.
Page : 196 pages
File Size : 40,20 MB
Release : 1999
Category : Mathematics
ISBN : 9780821820940
Book Description
This volume offers an account of the present state of the art in pseudoperiodic topology--a young branch of mathematics, born at the boundary between the ergodic theory of dynamical systems, topology, and number theory. Related topics include the theory of algorithms, convex integer polyhedra, Morse inequalities, real algebraic geometry, statistical physics, and algebraic number theory. The book contains many new results. Most of the articles contain brief surveys on the topics, making the volume accessible to a broad audience. From the Preface by V.I. Arnold: "The authors ... have done much to show how modern mathematics begets, from this sea of pathological counterexamples, remarkable general and universal laws, whose discovery would be unthinkable and whose formulation would be impossible in the naive set-theoretical setting."

Model Theory and Applications
Author : O.V. Belegradek
Publisher : American Mathematical Soc.
Page : 362 pages
File Size : 50,51 MB
Release : 1999
Category : Mathematics
ISBN : 9780821896037
Book Description
This volume is a collection of papers on model theory and its applications. The longest paper, "Model Theory of Unitriangular Groups" by O. V. Belegradek, forms a subtle general theory behind Mal'tsev's famous correspondence between rings and groups. This is the first published paper on the topic. Given the present model-theoretic interest in algebraic groups, Belegradek's work is of particular interest to logicians and algebraists. The rest of the collection consists of papers on various questions of model theory, mainly on stability theory. Contributors are leading Russian researchers in the field.
