Moduli of vector bundles

the long version

Containing papers presented at the 35th Taniguchi International Symposium held recently in Sanda and Kyoto, Japan, this outstanding reference details the latest developments concerning moduli spaces of vector bundles or instantons and their application. Covering a broad array of topics in both differential and algebraic geometry, Moduli of Vector Bundles discusses magnetic monopoles...hyper-Kahler manifolds...torus bundles...theory of cycles...the topology of moduli spaces of vector bundles...Witten's S-duality conjecture...new tools to compute Donaldson's invariant...line bundles and their global sections on moduli spaces...and more. Providing insightful, previously unpublished research articles, Moduli of Vector Bundles is an ideal reference for research mathematicians, including topologists and differential and algebraic geometers, theoretical physicists, and graduate-level students in these disciplines.
