An Invitation to Quantum Cohomology: Kontsevich's Formula for Rational Plane Curves
more books like this
by
Joachim Kock, Israel Vainsencher
This book is an elementary introduction to stable maps and quantum cohomology, starting with an introduction to stable pointed curves, and culminating with a proof of the associativity of the quantum product. The viewpoint is mostly that of enumerative geometry, and the red thread of the exposition is the problem of counting rational plane curves. ...

Morse Homology
more books like this
by
Matthias Schwarz
This book presents a link between modern analysis and topology. Based upon classical Morse theory, it develops the finite dimensional analogue of Floer homology which, in the recent years, has come to play a significant role in geometry. Morse homology naturally arises from the gradient dynamical system associated with a Morse function. The ...

Strong Shape and Homology
more books like this
by
Sibe Mardesic
Shape theory is an extension of homotopy theory from the realm of CW-complexes to arbitrary spaces. Besides applications in topology, it has interesting applications in various other areas of mathematics, especially in dynamical systems and C*-algebras. Strong shape is a refinement of ordinary shape with distinct advantages over the latter. Strong ...

In this book we consider deep and classical results of homotopy theory like the homological Whitehead theorem, the Hurewicz theorem, the finiteness obstruction theorem of Wall, the theorems on Whitehead torsion and simple homotopy equivalences, and we characterize axiomatically the assumptions under which such results hold. This leads to a new ...

Bivariant Periodic Cyclic Homology

Recent work by Cuntz and Quillen on bivariant periodic cyclic homology has caused quite a revolution in the subject. In this self-contained exposition, the author's purpose is to understand the functorial properties of the Cuntz-Quillen theory, which motivates his explorations of what he calls cyclic pro-homology. Simply stated, the cyclic pro ...
