On April 7-10, 1980, the American Mathematical Society sponsored a Symposium on the Mathematical Heritage of Henri Poincari, held at Indiana University, Bloomington, Indiana. This volume presents the written versions of all but three of the invited talks presented at this Symposium (those by W. Browder, A. Jaffe, and J. Mather were not written up for publication).In addition, it contains two papers by invited speakers who were not able to attend, S. S. Chern and L. Nirenberg. If one traces the influence of Poincari through the major mathematical figures of the early and midtwentieth century, it is through American mathematicians as well as French that this influence flows, through G. D. Birkhoff, Solomon Lefschetz, and Marston Morse. This continuing tradition represents one of the major strands of American as well as world mathematics, and it is as a testimony to this tradition as an opening to the future creativity of mathematics that this volume is dedicated. This part contains sections on geometry, topology, Riemann surfaces, discontinuous groups and Lie groups, and several complex variables.

An arrangement of hyperplanes is a finite collection ofcodimension one affine subspaces in a finite dimensionalvector space. Arrangements have emerged independently asimportant objects in various fields of mathematics such ascombinatorics, braids, configuration spaces, representationtheory, reflection groups, singularity theory, and incomputer science and physics. This book is the first comprehensive study of the subject. It treats arrangements with methods from combinatorics,algebra, algebraic geometry, topology, and group actions. Itemphasizes general techniques which illuminate theconnections among the different aspects of the subject. Itsmain purpose is to lay the foundations of the theory. Consequently, it is essentially self-contained and proofsare provided. Nevertheless, there are several new resultshere. In particular, many theorems that were previouslyknown only for central arrangements are proved here for thefirst time in completegenerality. The text provides the advanced graduate student entry into avital and active area of research.The working mathematicianwill findthe book useful as a source of basic results ofthe theory, open problems, and a comprehensive bibliographyof the subject.

This book is based on two series of lectures given at a summer school on algebraic combinatorics at the Sophus Lie Centre in Nordfjordeid, Norway, in June 2003, one by Peter Orlik on hyperplane arrangements, and the other one by Volkmar Welker on free resolutions. Both topics are essential parts of current research in a variety of mathematical fields, and the present book makes these sophisticated tools available for graduate students.
