"Ideas from quantum field theory and string theory have had an enormous impact on geometry over the last two decades. One extremely fruitful source of new mathematical ideas goes back to the works of Cecotti, Vafa, et al. around 1991 on the geometry of topological field theory. …

"During 1981-1982 the Institute for Advanced Study held a special year on algebraic geometry. Naturally there were a number of seminars, and this volume is essentially the proceedings of one of these. The motif of the seminar was to explore the ways in which the recent developme…

This book provides a comprehensive and up-to-date introduction to Hodge theory--one of the central and most vibrant areas of contemporary mathematics--from leading specialists on the subject. The topics range from the basic topology of algebraic varieties to the study of variati…
