Proceedings of the Summer School Geometric and Topological Methods for Quantum Field Theory : Villa de Leyva, Colombia, 9-27 July 2001 /

This volume offers an introduction to recent developments in several active topics of research at the interface between geometry, topology and quantum field theory. These include Hopf algebras underlying renormalization schemes in quantum field theory, noncommutative geometry with applications to in...
