超弦理论(英文版)(精)

Mathematics is a rapidly developing field where ideas and methods from many different subjects are interchanged and applied abundantly. One example is String Theory, which has raised many mathematical questions and has motivated the development of surprising new mathematical theories. String Theory has helped to solve many long-standing problems in mathematics, particularly in algebraic geometry. ...

In celebration of the opening of the Center of Mathematical Sciences at Zhejiang University, we held the 2002 String Theory International Conference from August 12th to August 15th at the new Center. The attendance of more than ten prominent mathematicians such as S.Hawking, D.Gross, and E.Witten was a huge sensation in China. These eminent mathematicians, in addition to S.-T. Yau and A. Strominger, had the honor of meeting the former President Jiang Zemin previously in Beijing. . The topic of this conference, string theory, has been a burn..
