Book Description
This collection of papers constitutes a wide-ranging survey of recent developments in differential geometry and its interactions with other fields, especially partial differential equations and mathematical physics. This area of mathematics was the subject of a special program at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton during the academic year 1979-1980; the papers in this volume were contributed by the speakers in the sequence of seminars organized by Shing-Tung Yau for this program. Both survey articles and articles presenting new results are included. The articles on differential geometry and partial differential equations include a general survey article by the editor on the relationship of the two fields and more specialized articles on topics including harmonic mappings, isoperimetric and Poincaré inequalities, metrics with specified curvature properties, the Monge-Arnpere equation, L2 harmonic forms and cohomology, manifolds of positive curvature, isometric embedding, and Kraumlhler manifolds and metrics. The articles on differential geometry and mathematical physics cover such topics as renormalization, instantons, gauge fields and the Yang-Mills equation, nonlinear evolution equations, incompleteness of space-times, black holes, and quantum gravity. A feature of special interest is the inclusion of a list of more than one hundred unsolved research problems compiled by the editor with comments and bibliographical information.

Book Description
The International Conference on Modern Mathematics and the International Symposium on Differential Geometry, in honor of Professor Su Buchin on the centenary of his birth, were held in September 2001 at Fudan University, Shanghai, China. Around 100 mathematicians from China, France, Japan, Singapore and the United States participated. The proceedings cover a broad spectrum of advanced topics in mathematics, especially in differential geometry, such as some problems of common interest in harmonic maps, submanifolds, the Yang-Mills field and the geometric theory of solitons. Contents:Asymptotic Behavior of Yang–Mills Flow in Higher Dimensions (Y M Chen et al.)Complete Submanifolds in Euclidean Spaces with Constant Scalar Curvature (Q M Cheng)On Mathematical Ship Lofting (G C Dong et al.)On the Nirenberg Problem (M Ji)Almost Complex Manifolds and a Differential Geometric Criterion for Hyperbolicity (S Kobayashi)Harmonic Maps Between Carnot Spaces (S Nishikawa)A Survey of Complete Manifolds with Bounded Radial Curvature Function (K Shiohama)On the Hensel Lift of a Polynomial (Z X Wan)A Note on Locally Real Hyperbolic Space with Finite Volume (Y H Yang)and other papers Readership: Researchers and graduate students in mathematics. Keywords:Differential Geometry;Harmonic Map;Submanifold;Yang-Mills Field;Geometric Theory of Solitons;Cohomology
