This is a version of the author's diploma thesis written at the University of Cologne in 2002/03. The topic is the construction of Seiberg-Witten invariants of closed 3-manifolds. In analogy to the four dimensional case, the structure of…
Errors and paradoxes in quantum mechanics, entry in the Compendium of Quantum Physics: Concepts, Experiments, History and Philosophy, ed. F. Weinert, K. Hentschel, D. Greenberger and B. Falkenburg (Springer), to appear
We make corrections on the paper by Sugino [{\it JHEP} {\bf 0501} (2005) 016].
This talk gives an introduction into the subject of Seiberg-Witten curves and their relation to integrable systems. We discuss some motivations and origins of this relation and consider explicit construction of various families of…

This is the foreword to the book we edited on the origins and early development of supersymmetry, which has been just issued by World Scientific. This book presents a view on the discovery of supersymmetry and pioneering investigations…
An outline of J\"org Eschmeier's main mathematical contributions is organized both on a historical perspective, as well as on a few distinct topics. The reader can grasp from our essay the dynamics of spectral theory of commutative tuples…
These lectures are devoted to the low energy limit of \N2 SUSY gauge theories, which is described in terms of integrable systems. A special emphasis is on a duality that naturally acts on these integrable systems. The duality turns out to…
