They cover strings, conformal field theories, W and Virasoro algebras, topological field theory, quantum groups, vertex and Hopf algebras, and non-commutative geometry. The relatively long contributions are pedagogical in style and address students as well as scientists.Lecture Notes in Physics,0075-8450 ;447PhysicsElementary particles (Physics)Quantum field theoryMathematical Methods in Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19013Numerical and Computational Physics, Simulationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19021Elementary Particles, Quantum Field Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P23029Physics.Elementary particles (Physics).Quantum field theory.Mathematical Methods in Physics.Numerical and Computational Physics, Simulation.Elementary Particles, Quantum Field Theory.530.1/4Aktas Gülenedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtSaclioglu Cihanedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtSerdaroglu Meraledthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtGèursey Memorial ConferenceBOOK9910257399803321Strings and Symmetries335141UNINA
