Beschreibung
The Symposium on the Current State and Prospects of
Mathematics was held in Barcelona from June 13 to June 18,
1991. Seven invited Fields medalists gavetalks on the
development of their respective research fields. The
contents of all lectures were collected in the volume,
together witha transcription of a round table discussion
held during the Symposium. All papers are expository. Some
parts include precise technical statements of recent
results, but the greater part consists of narrative text
addressed to a very broad mathematical public.
CONTENTS: R. Thom: Leaving Mathematics for Philosophy.- S.
Novikov: Role of Integrable Models in the Development of
Mathematics.- S.-T. Yau: The Current State and Prospects of
Geometry and Nonlinear Differential Equations.- A. Connes:
Noncommutative Geometry.- S. Smale: Theory of Computation.-
V. Jones: Knots in Mathematics and Physics.- G. Faltings:
Recent Progress in Diophantine Geometry.

Zusammenfassung
In many fields of scientific research, the highest distinction is the Nobel Prize. In mathematics, there is for historical reasons no Nobel Prize, however, the so-called Fields Medal awarded every 4 years for "Outstanding Discoveries in Mathematics" carries similar prestige and distinction. In this book 7 Fields Medalists have each written down their view of the current development of research in their respective fields. The book will appeal to every mathematician and graduate students of mathematics, and provides a fascinating insight and commentary on present-day mathematics as a growing and moving research discipline.
