Download or read book Infinite-Dimensional Aspects of Representation Theory and Applications written by Stephen Berman and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2005 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The University of Virginia (Charlottesville) hosted an international conference on Infinite-dimensional Aspects of Representation Theory and Applications. This volume contains papers resulting from the mini-courses and talks given at the meeting. Beyond the techniques and ideas related to representation theory, the book demonstrates connections to number theory, algebraic geometry, and mathematical physics. The specific topics covered include Hecke algebras, quantum groups, infinite-dimensional Lie algebras, quivers, modular representations, and Gromov-Witten invariants. The book is suitable for graduate students and researchers interested in representation theory.
