Noncommutative Birational Geometry, Representations and Combinatorics

This volume contains the proceedings of the AMS Special Session on Noncommutative Birational Geometry, Representations and Cluster Algebras, held from January 6-7, 2012, in Boston, MA. The papers deal with various aspects of noncommutative birational geometry and related topics, focusing mainly on structure and representations of quantum groups and algebras, braided algebras, rational series in free groups, Poisson brackets on free algebras, and related problems in combinatorics.

This volume is useful for researchers and graduate students in mathematics and mathematical physics who want to be introduced to different areas of current research in the new area of noncommutative algebra and geometry.
