This monograph, written for educational purposes, serves as an introduction to the concept of integrability as it applies to systems of differential equations (both ordinary and partial) as well as to vector-valued fields. The general cases…
This book is a textbook for the basic course of differential geometry. It is recommended as an introductory material for this subject.
An expository approach is given on the relationship between algebraic and geometric approaches to properties of isometries in the plane and the 2-sphere.
Since the subject of noncommutative geometry is now entering maturity, we felt there is need for presentation of the material at an undergraduate course level. Our review is a zero order approximation to this project. Thus, the present…
In this chapter, we report the recent progress in the understanding of the rich mathematical structures of topological insulators in the framework of index theory and noncommutative geometry.
These notes contain a survey of some aspects of the theory of graded differential algebras and of noncommutative differential calculi as well as of some applications connected with physics. They also give a description of several new…
An expository article on Turaev surfaces written for "A Concise Encyclopedia of Knot Theory," to appear.
In this survey, we describe the fundamental differential-geometric structures of information manifolds, state the fundamental theorem of information geometry, and illustrate some use cases of these information manifolds in information…
This text is a survey of derived algebraic geometry. It covers a variety of general notions and results from the subject with a view on the recent developments at the interface with deformation quantization.
This is a pedagogical introduction covering maps of metric spaces, Gromov-Hausdorff distance and its "physical" meaning, and dilation structures as a convenient simplification of an exhaustive database of maps of a metric space into…
The paper suggests a short survey of integration algorithms which evolved since 1982. These theorems and algorithms form discrete versions of the calculus theorems.
This is an overview of higher structural constructions in physics. The main motivations of our current attempt are as follows: (i) to provide a brief introduction to derived algebraic geometry, (ii) to understand how derived objects…
The aim of this monograph is twofold: to explain various nonautonomous integrable systems (discrete Painlev\'e all the way up to the elliptic level, as well as generalizations \`a la Garnier) using an interpretation of difference and…
A survey on recent developments in (algebraic) integral geometry is given. The main focus lies on algebraic structures on the space of translation invariant valuations and applications in integral geometry.
This is a survey of the work of Seiberg and Witten on 4-dimensional N=2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory and of some of its recent extensions, written for mathematicians. The point of view is that of algebraic geometry and integrable…
This is a survey on appearances of reflection groups, real and complex, in algebraic geometry. We also include a brief introduction into the theory of reflection groups.
Draft version of an article prepared for the Encyclopedia of Mathematical Physics, Elsevier, to appear in 2006.
This is an introductory text to differential geometry (written in Polish) aimed for high-school students.
This is a mainly expository sketch showing how some integrable systems (e.g. KP or KdV) can be viewed as quantum mechanical in nature.
