  • More about New Spaces in Physics: Volume 2: Formal and Conceptual Reflections


This book and its companion explore new notions of space, including noncommutative geometry, supergeometry, derived symplectic geometry, higher geometric quantization, intuitionistic quantum logic, continuum description of spacetime, twistor theory, loop quantum gravity, and geometry in string theory, presented by leading experts at the New Spaces in Mathematics and Physics workshop in 2015.

Format: Hardback
Length: 436 pages
Publication date: 01 April 2021
Publisher: Cambridge University Press


After the development of manifolds and algebraic varieties in the previous century, mathematicians and physicists have continued to advance concepts of space. This book and its companion explore various new notions of space, including both formal and conceptual points of view, as presented by leading experts at the New Spaces in Mathematics and Physics workshop held at the Institut Henri Poincaré in 2015. This volume covers a broad range of topics in mathematical physics, including noncommutative geometry, supergeometry, derived symplectic geometry, higher geometric quantization, intuitionistic quantum logic, problems with the continuum description of spacetime, twistor theory, loop quantum gravity, and geometry in string theory. It is addressed primarily to mathematical physicists and mathematicians, but also to historians and philosophers of these disciplines.
