This quantity relies on lecture classes and seminars given on the LMS Durham Symposium at the geometry of low-dimensional manifolds. This sector has been one in all excessive study in the course of the Nineteen Nineties, with significant breakthroughs that experience illuminated the best way a few diverse topics have interaction (for instance: topology, differential and algebraic geometry and mathematical physics). The workshop introduced jointly a few wonderful figures to provide lecture classes and seminars in those topics; the amount that has resulted is the one expository resource for a lot of the fabric, and may be crucial for all learn employees in geometry and mathematical physics.
