Northern California Symplectic Geometry Seminar
Share this pageEdited by Ya. Eliashberg; D. Fuchs; T. Ratiu; A. Weinstein
This seminar was established to encourage ongoing interaction
between geometers at Stanford University and the University of
California (Berkeley, Davis, and Santa Cruz). Over the years, lectures
presented have provided a panorama of developments in symplectic and
contact geometry and topology, Poisson geometry, quantization theory,
and applications.
This volume includes papers by several of the distinguished seminar
participants. The diversity of the topics from the seminar are
reflected in the informative presentations. A wide range of topics are
presented in the book, including symplectic topology, Hamiltonian
dynamics, quantum cohomology and mirror symmetry, infinite-dimensional
symplectic geometry, the theory of Hamiltonian group actions, and
quantization.
Readership
Graduate students and research mathematicians interested in symplectic geometry and topology and applications.
