This book explores the rich and deep interplay between mathematics
and physics one century after David Hilbert's works from 1891 to
1933, published by Springer in six volumes. The most prominent
scientists in various domains of these disciplines contribute to
this volume providing insight to their works, and analyzing the
impact of the breakthrough and the perspectives of their own
contributions. The result is a broad journey through the most
recent developments in mathematical physics, such as string theory,
quantum gravity, noncommutative geometry, twistor theory, Gauge and
Quantum fields theories, just to mention a few. The reader,
accompanied on this journey by some of the fathers of these
theories, explores some far reaching interfaces where mathematics
and theoretical physics interact profoundly and gets a broad and
deep understanding of subjects which are at the core of recent
developments in mathematical physics. The journey is not confined
to the present state of the art, but sheds light on future
developments of the field, highlighting a list of open problems.
Graduate students and researchers working in physics, mathematics
and mathematical physics will find this journey extremely
fascinating. All those who want to benefit from a comprehensive
description of all the latest advances in mathematics and
mathematical physics, will find this book very useful too.
