Modern Quantum Field Theory Ii - Proceedings Of The International Colloquium e-bog

The proceedings reflect a broad spectrum of topics in contemporary theoretical physics: quantum aspects of black holes; recent progress in critical and noncritical string theory; spin chains quantum hall effect and generalized statistics; stochastic dynamics turbulence and reaction kinetics; foundations of quantum mechanics; new statistics in field theory; quantum field theory on Riemann surfaces and knot theory; lattice field theories. The lectures present developments in the frontiers of these subjects and provide interdisciplinary links between the areas.
