    DIFFERENTIAL GEOMETRY AND PHYSICS
    Proceedings of the 23rd International Conference of Differential Geometric Methods in Theoretical Physics
    Tianjin, China, 20 – 26 August 2005

    edited by Mo-Lin Ge (Chern Institute of Mathematics, Tianjin, China) & Weiping Zhang (Chern Institute of Mathematics, Tianjin, China)

    Table of Contents (95k)
    Preface (48k)
    Chapter 1: Yangian and Applications (787k)

    This volumes provides a comprehensive review of interactions between differential geometry and theoretical physics, contributed by many leading scholars in these fields. The contributions promise to play an important role in promoting the developments in these exciting areas. Besides the plenary talks, the coverage includes: models and related topics in statistical physics; quantum fields, strings and M-theory; Yang-Mills fields, knot theory and related topics; K-theory, including index theory and non-commutative geometry; mirror symmetry, conformal and topological quantum field theory; development of integrable systems; and random matrix theory.
