QUANTUM THEORY AND SYMMETRIES
Proceedings of the 3rd International Symposium
Cincinnati, USA 10 - 14 September 2003

edited by P C Argyres, T J Hodges, F Mansouri, J J Scanio, P Suranyi & L C R Wijewardhana (University of Cincinnati, USA)

The book contains the text of lectures given at the third of a series of biennial symposia in mathematical physics held in odd-numbered years. The subject of the symposium is the frontiers of mathematical physics. It deals with quantum phenomena and includes topics such as string theory and quantum gravity, particle physics and field theory, non-communative geometry, integrable models and infinite dimensional symmetry groups, quantum computing and information processing, and quantum chaos.

The proceedings have been selected for coverage in:
