Traditionally, Lie Theory is a tool to build mathematical models
for physical systems. Recently, the trend is towards geometrisation
of the mathematical description of physical systems and objects. A
geometric approach to a system yields in general some notion of
symmetry which is very helpful in understanding its structure.
Geometrisation and symmetries are meant in their broadest sense,
i.e., classical geometry, differential geometry, groups and quantum
groups, infinite-dimensional (super-)algebras, and their
representations. Furthermore, we include the necessary tools from
functional analysis and number theory. This is a large
interdisciplinary and interrelated field.
Samples of these new trends are presented in this volume, based on
contributions from the Workshop Lie Theory and Its Applications in
Physics held near Varna, Bulgaria, in June 2011.
This book is suitable for an extensive audience of mathematicians,
mathematical physicists, theoretical physicists, and researchers in
the field of Lie Theory."
