Résumé : | "In the last half-century, tremendous progress has been made in the study of 3-dimensional topology. Many revolutions in 3-manifold topology during this period have come from outside of the field, including Kleinian groups, minimal surfaces, foliations, von Neumann algebras, gauge theory, mathematical physics, 4-manifolds, symplectic topology, contact topology, Riemannian geometry and PDEs, number theory, dynamics, and geometric group theory. The influx of ideas from neighboring fields has made the subject of 3-manifolds (and more generally low-dimensional topology) a very rich subject, creating subfields such as quantum topology. But this also means that there is a tremendous amount of background material for a novitiate in the subject to learn and master"--Publisher |
