Theoretical Particle String and Membrane Physics and Hamiltonian Dynamics ; T-DUALITY FOR NON-FREE CIRCLE ACTIONSA New Spectral Cancellation in Quantum Gravity Modern theory of elliptic operators, or simply elliptic theory, has been shaped by the Atiyah-Singer Index Theorem created 40 years ago. Reviewing elliptic theory over a broad range, 32 leading scientists from 14 different countries present recent developments in topology; heat kernel techniques; spectral invariants and cutting and pasting; noncommutative geometry; and theoretical particle, string and membrane physics, and Hamiltonian dynamics. The first of its kind, this volume is ideally suited to graduate students and researchers interested in careful expositions of newly-evolved achievemElliptic operatorsDifferential equations, EllipticTopologyBoundary value problemsElliptic operators.Differential equations, Elliptic.Topology.Boundary value problems.515/.7242Booss Bernhelm1941-53556Wojciechowski Krzysztof P.1953-53557MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910784854603321Analysis, geometry and topology of elliptic operators3830642UNINA
