One of the most eminent of contemporary mathematicians, Shing-Tung
Yau has received numerous honors, including the 1982 Fields Medal,
considered the highest honor in mathematics, for his work in
differential geometry. He is known also for his work in algebraic
and Kähler geometry, general relativity, and string theory. His
influence in the development and establishment of these areas of
research has been great. These five volumes reproduce a
comprehensive selection of his published mathematical papers of the
years 1971 to 1991—a period of groundbreaking accomplishments in
numerous disciplines including geometric analysis, Kähler
geometry, and general relativity. The editors have organized the
contents of this collection by subject area—metric geometry and
minimal submanifolds; metric geometry and harmonic functions;
eigenvalues and general relativity; and Kähler geometry. Also
presented are expert commentaries on the subject matter, and
personal reminiscences that shed light on the development of the
ideas which appear in these papers.
