About this book

This volume contains review talks and a small selection of the research papers presented at the world's most distinguished conference on group theoretical methods in physics. The papers are devoted to such topics as spectrum generating groups, quantum groups, coherent states, and geometric aspects of group representations. The methods apply to nuclear physics, quantum mechanics, ordinary and supersymmetric linear and non- linear differential equations, geometry, and non-commutative geometry. The book addresses theoretical physicists, especially those in research.
