    AMS/IP Studies in Advanced Mathematics
    Volume: 20; 2001; 518 pp
    MSC: Primary 05; 08; 11; 14; 22; 35; 37; 80

    The International Congress of Mathematicians was an historical event that was held at the Morningside Center of Mathematics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (Beijing). It was the first occasion where Chinese mathematicians from all over the world gathered to present their research.

    The Morningside Mathematics lectures were given by R. Borcherds, J. Coates, R. Graham, and D. Stroock. Other distinguished speakers included J.-P. Bourguignon, J. Jöst, M. Taylor, and S. L. Lee. Topics covered in the volume include algebra and representation theory, algebraic geometry, number theory and automorphic forms, Riemannian geometry and geometric analysis, mathematical physics, topology, complex analysis and complex geometry, computational mathematics, and combinatorics.

    Titles in this series are co-published with International Press of Boston, Inc., Cambridge, MA.
