Description for Notes on Seiberg-Witten Theory
Hardcover. Presents a basic collection of principles, techniques, and applications needed to conduct independent research in gauge theory and its use in geometry and topology. This title includes self-contained computations of the Seiberg-Witten invariants of most simply connected algebraic surfaces using Witten's factorization method. Series: Graduate Studies in Mathematics. Num Pages: 484 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: PBMP; PBP. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 183 x 262 x 29. Weight in Grams: 1094.
In this volume the author presents, in great detail and with many examples, a basic collection of principles, techniques, and applications needed to conduct independent research in gauge theory and its use in geometry and topology. Complete and self-contained computations of the Seiberg-Witten invariants of most simply connected algebraic surfaces using only Witten's factorization method are included. Also given is a new approach to cutting and pasting Seiberg-Witten invariants, which is illustrated by examples such as the connected sum theorem, the blow-up formula, and a proof of a vanishing result of Fintushel and Stern. The book is a suitable textbook ... Read more
