New Spaces in Mathematics and Physics 2 Volume Hardback Set

In these graduate-level books, leading researchers explore various new notions of 'space' in mathematics and mathematical physicists.

These books explore new notions of space in mathematics and mathematical physics, including formal and conceptual points of view, as presented by leading experts at the New Spaces in Mathematics and Physics workshop. They are suitable for mathematicians and mathematical physicists, as well as historians and philosophers of these disciplines.After the development of manifolds and algebraic varieties in the previous century, mathematicians and physicists have continued to advance concepts of space. These books explore various new notions of space, including both formal and conceptual points of view, as presented by leading experts at the New Spaces in Mathematics and Physics workshop held at the Institut Henri Poincaré in 2015. They are addressed primarily to mathematicians and mathematical physicists, but also to historians and philosophers of these disciplines.
