Duality, gauge field theory, geometric quantization, Seiberg-Witten theory, spectral properties and families of Dirac operators, and the geometry of loop groups offer some striking recent examples of modern topics which stand on the borderline between geometry and analysis on the one hand and quantum field theory on the other, where the physicist's and the mathematician's perspective complement each other, leading to new matheQuantum field theoryCongressesField theory (Physics)CongressesQuantum field theoryField theory (Physics)530.143Ocampo Hernan1495512Paycha Sylvie521630Reyes Andrés1495513MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910782277603321Geometric methods for quantum field theory3719605UNINA
