Topological phases of matter; Ground states manifolds as modular functorsElementary excitations as particlesThis unique volume, resulting from a conference at the Chern Institute of Mathematics dedicated to the memory of Xiao-Song Lin, presents a broad connection between topology and physics as exemplified by the relationship between low-dimensional topology and quantum field theory.The volume includes works on picture (2+1)-TQFTs and their applications to quantum computing, Berry phase and Yang-Baxterization of the braid relation, finite type invariant of knots, categorification and Khovanov homology, Gromov-Witten type invariants, twisted Alexander polynomials, Faddeev knots, generalized Ricci floNankai Tracts in MathematicsLow-dimensional topologyCongressesQuantum field theoryCongressesAlgebraic topologyCongressesField theory (Physics)CongressesLow-dimensional topologyQuantum field theoryAlgebraic topologyField theory (Physics)514.22514/.22Lin Xiao-song1957-2007.1506917Lin Kevin1506918Wang Zhenghan477537Zhang Weiping1964-1127180Nankai International Conference in Memory of Xiao-Song Lin(2007 :Tianjin, China)MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910777930903321Topology and physics3737344UNINA02181oam 22005414a 450 991052466590332120230621141108.097808143445830814344585(CKB)4100000006996613(MiAaPQ)EBC5526589(OCoLC)1055142971(MdBmJHUP)muse68300(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/88585(Perlego)2998813(oapen)doab88585(EXLCZ)99410000000699661319960319d1996 uy 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierThe Israeli-American ConnectionIts Roots in the Yishuv, 1914-1945 /Michael BrownWayne State University Press2018Detroit :Wayne State University Press,1996.©1996.1 online resource (396 pages) illustrations9780814344590 0814344593 Includes bibliographical references (p. 357-377) and indexes.The Israeli-American Connection examines the ways in which the American experience influenced some of the major leaders of the yishuv, the Jewish settlement in Palestine, during and between the world wars. In six biographical chapters, Michael Brown studies Vladimir Jabotinsky, Chaim Nahman Bialik, Berl Katznelson, Henrietta Szold, Golda Meir, and David Ben-Gurian, focusing on each leader's involvement with and image of America, as well as the impact of America on their lives and careers.ZionismUnited StatesZionistsPalestineBiographyPalestineRelationsUnited StatesUnited StatesRelationsPalestineElectronic books.
