Topics in Topology and Mathematical Physics

From Book News, Inc.
Eight papers developed from a series of recent talks in an ongoing seminar in Moscow, address various problems in the theory of completely integrable systems and relations to topology, algebra, and mathematical physics. Among the topics they discuss are the differential geometry and applications of non-local Hamiltonian operators of hydrodynamic types, spin generalization of the Calogero-Moser system and the matrix KP equation, the symplectic and Poisson geometry of loop spaces of manifolds and nonlinear equations, and real non-singular finite zone solutions of soliton equations. An introductory chapter traces the history of the seminars. No index. The price for members is $53. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.

Book Description
The papers in this collection grew out of talks recently presented at S. P. Novikov's seminar on topology and mathematical physics in Moscow. They are devoted to various problems in the theory of completely integrable systems and relations to topology, algebra, and mathematical physics.
