Both a theoretical physicist and mathematician, Ludwig Faddeev is
best known for "the Faddeev equations", the first mathematically
well-posed formulation of the quantum-mechanical three-body
problem, which are foundational in few-body physics. Having made
multiple seminal contributions to theoretical physics
(Faddeev-Popov ghosts, Faddeev-Senjanovic quantization,
Faddeev-Jackiw quantization among others), he was conferred
numerous prizes and memberships of prestigious institutions in
recognition of the importance of his work. These include the Dannie
Heineman Prize, the Dirac Prize, the Max Planck Medal, the Shaw
Prize and the Lomonosov Gold Medal among others. A gathering of
contributions from some of the biggest names in physics and
mathematics, this volume serves as a tribute to this legendary
figure in mathematical physics. Volume contributors include: Fields
medallist Sir Michael Atiyah, Jurg Froehlich, Roman Jackiw, Louis
Nirenberg, Samson Shatashvili, Vladimir Korepin as well as Nobel
laureates Frank Wilczek, C N Yang and Gerard 't Hooft.
