Beskrivning

These lectures introduce some very popular fields in topology. The topics discussed are interrelated with modern physics and include works of four leading researchers: M Atiyah, R Bott, J Jones and G Segal. The original lectures presented at the conference at Budapest are enlarged with appendices to make these notes self-contained.
