This series is devoted to the publication of proceedings of conferences or workshops sponsored by the Institut de Recherche Mathématique Avanceé, Strasbourg, France, research monographs and other mathematical writings judged appropriate by the editor. The main focus will be proceedings of the international meetings between mathematicians and theoretical physicists (known under the French abbreviation "RCP") held at IRMA twice a year since about 30 years. These meetings are aimed at creating and strengthening bridges between active mathematicians and physicists in the areas of current strong development. The goal is to promote the recent advances in these disciplines and to make them accessible to wide circles of professional mathematicians and students of mathematics and physics.weiterlesen
