Description for J-Holomorphic Curves and Symplectic Topology (American Mathematical Society)
Hardcover. Num Pages: 726 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: PBP. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 229 x 152. .
The theory of $J$-holomorphic curves has been of great importance since its introduction by Gromov in 1985. In mathematics, its applications include many key results in symplectic topology. It was also one of the main inspirations for the creation of Floer homology. In mathematical physics, it provides a natural context in which to define Gromov-Witten invariants and quantum cohomology, two important ingredients of the mirror symmetry conjecture.
The main goal of this book is to establish the fundamental theorems of the subject in full and rigourous detail. In particular, the book contains complete proofs of Gromov's compactness ... Read more
