Product Description
Mathematical gauge theory studies connections on principal bundles, or, more precisely, the solution spaces of certain partial differential equations for such connections. Historically, these equations have come from mathematical physics, and play an important role in the description of the electro-weak and strong nuclear forces. The use of gauge theory as a tool for studying topological properties of four-manifolds was pioneered by the fundamental work of Simon Donaldson in the early 1980s, and was revolutionized by the introduction of the Seiberg-Witten equations in the mid-1990s. Since the birth of the subject, it has retained its close connection with symplectic topology. The analogy between these two fields of study was further underscored by Andreas Floer's construction of an infinite-dimensional variant of Morse theory that applies in two a priori different contexts: either to define symplectic invariants for pairs of Lagrangian submanifolds of a symplectic manifold, or to define topological invariants for three-manifolds, which fit into a framework for calculating invariants for smooth four-manifolds. "Heegaard Floer homology", the recently-discovered invariant for three- and four-manifolds, comes from an application of Lagrangian Floer homology to spaces associated to Heegaard diagrams. Although this theory is conjecturally isomorphic to Seiberg-Witten theory, it is more topological and combinatorial in flavor and thus easier to work with in certain contexts. The interaction between gauge theory, low-dimensional topology, and symplectic geometry has led to a number of striking new developments in these fields. The aim of this volume is to introduce graduate students and researchers in other fields to some of these exciting developments, with a special emphasis on the very fruitful interplay between disciplines.

This volume is based on lecture courses and advanced seminars given at the 2004 Clay Mathematics Institute Summer School at the Alfréd Rényi Institute of Mathematics in Budapest, Hungary. Several of the authors have added a considerable amount of additional material to that presented at the school, and the resulting volume provides a state-of-the-art introduction to current research, covering material from Heegaard Floer homology, contact geometry, smooth four-manifold topology, and symplectic four-manifolds.

4-0 out of 5 stars Simple, accessible, and insightful
"Dialogues on Mathematics" contains three dialogues involving characters such as Socrates and Archimedes (separately).They're written in classic style, and at first I thought they may be translations from Plato or something.

I've only read a third of the book, so I'll restrict my comment to that.Hippocrates asks Socrates if mathematics is worth studying, thus initiating a genuinely Socratic dialogue on the nature of mathematics and its relationship to the real world.

Even as a long-time consumer of mathematical thought (and now a mathematics teacher) there was plenty of substance in the dialogue for me: nice analogies and a sense of conviction of the importance of mathematics.

I picked this book up at a university book sale for $6.At the time, it seemed expensive compared to the other offerings, especially as it's only 100 pages.I now offer this brief review to encourage anyone who reads it that this book is well worth obtaining if you have the chance. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Product Description
A book for all those with an interest in mathematics. The author, the late Alfred Renyi, an outstanding Hungarian mathematician, worked throughout his life to inspire others with his own love for the subject. The first paper in the book, "On the mathematical notion of information", is written in the form of a diary, as though a university student just beginning the study of information theory is writing down his thoughts. The book also contains papers on games of chance, the teaching of probability theory and the mathematical theory of trees. Throughout, Renyi's intention is to show what mathematics is, how it can contribute to our everyday life, and how it can further the development of our thinking. ... Read more
