Aims and purpose of the meeting
This conference, organized jointly and attended by a group of
mathematicians and theoretical physicists, was part of a continuing
series of workshops and conferences held every three years at the
Hesselberg Academy. This year's conference was devoted to mathematical
aspects of quantum field theory and to topical research in modern
quantum field theory. For this reason, some of the lectures are of
introductory and pedagogical nature whose aim is to get acquainted with
some basic notions and to develop notations and conventions, while
others go deep into specific topics of present-day research in quantum
field theory.
