Lectures on Seiberg-Witten Invariants

by John D. Moore

Book Overview

Riemannian, symplectic and complex geometry are often studied by means ofsolutions to systems ofnonlinear differential equations, such as the equa- tions of geodesics, minimal surfaces, pseudoholomorphic curves and Yang- Mills connections. For studying such equations, a new unified technology has been developed, involving analysis on infinite-dimensional manifolds. A striking applications of the new technology is Donaldson's theory of "anti-self-dual"...
