INFORMATION REGARDING PUBLICATION
OF THE PROCEEDINGS:
The Conference proceedings have been published in two volumes by Birkhauser Boston last June 2000. The following is the bibliographical information about each volume, and about the two-volume set. You can see cover
for volume 1 and cover
for volume 2. Individual volumes: "CLIFFORD ALGEBRAS AND THEIR APPLICATIONS IN
MATHEMATICAL PHYSICS"
Volume 2: Clifford Analysis, J. Ryan, University of Arkansas, Fayetteville, Arkansas, and W. Spr\"{o}\ss ig, TU-Bergakademie, Freiberg, Germany (Eds.) May/June 2000 / 320 + 19 pp. / Hardcover / Birkh\"{a}user, ISBN 0-8176-4183-1, $49.95+shipping and handling, Progress in Physics Series. Two-volume set: "CLIFFORD ALGEBRAS AND THEIR APPLICATIONS IN
MATHEMATICAL PHYSICS"
"Clifford Algebras and Their Applications in Mathematical Physics" provides a broad overview of current topics in mathematical aspects and physical applications of Clifford (geometric) algebras. All papers presented in this two-volume set are either well-developed original articles or review papers. All contributions have been refereed. Both volumes are intended to be accessible to both graduate students and specialists in the general area of Clifford algebras and their applications. Volume 1 "Algebra and Physics" is devoted to the mathematical aspects of Clifford algebras and their applications in physics. Algebraic geometry, cohomology, non-commutative spaces, q-deformations and the related quantum groups, and projective geometry provide the basis for algebraic topics covered. Physical applications and extensions of physical theories such as the theory of quaternionic spin, Dirac theory of electron, plane waves and wave packets in electrodynamics, and electron scattering are also presented, showing the broad applicability of Clifford geometric algebras in solving physical problems. Treatment of the structure theory of quantum Clifford algebras, twistor phase space, introduction of a Kaluza-Klein type theory related to Finsler geometry, the connection to logic, group representations, and computational techniques -- including symbolic calculations and theorem proving -- round out the presentation. To download Table of Contents of Volume 1 and
preface summarizing each paper, select one of these files:
TOC1.ps
(319KB) or TOC1.dvi
(75KB). Volume 2 "Clifford Analysis" is
an up-to-date survey of most aspects of modern-day Clifford analysis. Topics
range from applications such as complex-distance potential theory, supersymmetry,
and fluid dynamics to Fourier analysis, the study of boundary value problems,
and applications to mathematical physics and Schwarzian derivatives in
Euclidean space. Among the mathematical topics examined are generalized
Dirac operators, monogenic and hypermonogenic functions and their derivatives,
Euclidean Beltrami equations, Fourier theory under M\"{o}bius transformations,
and applications to operator theory and scattering theory.
