This book is a collection of the lectures and talks presented in the Tohoku Forum for Creativity in the thematic year 2015 'Fundamental Problems in Quantum Physics: Strings, Black Holes and Quantum Information', and related events in the period 2014-2016.
There are three new appendices, one by Stefan Theisen on the role of Calabi- Yau manifolds in string theory and one by Otto Forster on the use of elliptic curves in computing theory and coding theory.
Based on the Simons Symposia held in 2015, the proceedings in this volume focus on rational curves on higher-dimensional algebraic varieties and applications of the theory of curves to arithmetic problems.
The second of a two-part volume, this collection offers a unifying vision of algebraic geometry, exploring its evolution over the last four decades as well as state-of-the art research.
A tribute to the vision and legacy of Israel Moiseevich Gelfand, the invited papers in this volume reflect the unity of mathematics as a whole, with particular emphasis on the many connections among the fields of geometry, physics, and representation theory.
The book is a collection of surveys and original research articles concentrating on new perspectives and research directions at the crossroads of algebraic geometry, topology, and singularity theory.
This monograph presents the current status of a rapidly developing part of several complex variables, motivated by the applicability of effective results to algebraic geometry and differential geometry.
The already broad range of applications of ring theory has been enhanced in the eighties by the increasing interest in algebraic structures of considerable complexity, the so-called class of quantum groups.
This proceedings volume presents selected, peer-reviewed contributions from the 26th National School on Algebra, which was held in Constanta, Romania, on August 26-September 1, 2018.
The purpose of this book is to build the fundament of an Arakelov theory over adelic curves in order to provide a unified framework for research on arithmetic geometry in several directions.
This book presents the state of the art on numerical semigroups and related subjects, offering different perspectives on research in the field and including results and examples that are very difficult to find in a structured exposition elsewhere.
To mark the World Mathematical Year 2000 an International Conference on Number Theory and Discrete Mathematics in honour of the legendary Indian Mathematician Srinivasa Ramanuj~ was held at the centre for Advanced study in Mathematics, Panjab University, Chandigarh, India during October 2-6, 2000.
The Applications of Computer Algebra (ACA) conference covers a wide range of topics from Coding Theory to Differential Algebra to Quantam Computing, focusing on the interactions of these and other areas with the discipline of Computer Algebra.
This volume collects contributions by leading experts in the area of commutative algebra related to the INdAM meeting "e;Homological and Computational Methods in Commutative Algebra"e; held in Cortona (Italy) from May 30 to June 3, 2016 .
