This volume of the CRM Conference Series is based on a carefully
refereed selection of contributions presented at the "11th
International Symposium on Quantum Theory and Symmetries", held in
Montreal, Canada from July 1-5, 2019. The main objective of the
meeting was to share and make accessible new research and recent
results in several branches of Theoretical and Mathematical
Physics, including Algebraic Methods, Condensed Matter Physics,
Cosmology and Gravitation, Integrability, Non-perturbative Quantum
Field Theory, Particle Physics, Quantum Computing and Quantum
Information Theory, and String/ADS-CFT. There was also a special
session in honour of Decio Levi. The volume is divided into
sections corresponding to the sessions held during the symposium,
allowing the reader to appreciate both the homogeneity and the
diversity of mathematical tools that have been applied in these
subject areas. Several of the plenary speakers, who are
internationally recognized experts in their fields, have
contributed reviews of the main topics to complement the original
contributions.

Difference equations are playing an increasingly important role in
the natural sciences. Indeed many phenomena are inherently discrete
and are naturally described by difference equations. Phenomena
described by differential equations are therefore approximations of
more basic discrete ones. Moreover, in their study it is very often
necessary to resort to numerical methods. This always involves a
discretization of the differential equations involved, thus
replacing them by difference equations. This book shows how Lie
group and integrability techniques, originally developed for
differential equations, have been adapted to the case of difference
ones. Each of the eleven chapters is a self-contained treatment of
a topic, containing introductory material as well as the latest
research results. The book will be welcomed by graduate students
and researchers seeking an introduction to the field. As a survey
of the current state of the art it will also serve as a valuable
reference.
