Conformal Field Theories and Integrable Models Lectures Held at the Eötvös Graduate Course, Budapest, Hungary, 13–18 August 1996 / edited by Zalan Horvath, Laszlo Palla.

In the last few years we have witnessed an upsurge of interest in exactly solvable quantum field theoretical models in many branches of theoretical physics ranging from mathematical physics through high-energy physics to solid states. This book contains six pedagogically written articles meant as an...
