Description
Summary:The aim of this well-known annual colloquium on group theoretical and geometrical methods in physics is to give an overview of current research. Original contributions along with some review articles cover relevant mathematical developments as well as applications to physical phenomena. The volume contains contributions dealing with concepts from classical group theory, supergroups, superalgebras, infinite dimensional groups, Kac-Moody algebras and related structures. Applications to physics include quantization methods, nuclear physics, crystallography, gauge theory and strings in particle physics. Most of the articles have an introductory or a review section, so the volume will be useful not only for researchers but also for graduate students.
