Samenvatting:

it organizes weekly seminars as well as annual workshops The book contains 17 contributed articles on current research topics in a variety of fields: symplectic geometry, quantization, quantum groups, algebraic geometry, algebraic groups and invariant theory, and character­ istic classes.



This collection of invited mathematical papers by a list of distinguished mathematicians is an outgrowth of the scientific activities at the Center for Geometry and Mathematical Physics of Penn State University. The articles in this text present results or discuss perspectives on work that should be of interest to researchers and graduate students working in symplectic geometry and geometric quantization, deformation quantization, non-commutative geometry and index theory, quantum groups, holomorphic algebraic geometry and moduli spaces, quantum cohomology, algebraic groups and invariant theory, and characteristic classes.
