Topical Sessions

• Foundations of quantum mechanics;
• Integrable models;
• Symmetries of nonlinear differential equations;
• Infinite-dimensional symmetries;
• Duality in quantum field theory and quantum mechanics;
• Superstrings, cosmology, quantum gravity and topological defects;
• Group theory in modern geometry, noncommutative geometry;
• Loop algebras and W-algebras;
• Lie groups, representation theory and special functions;
• Quantum optics and quantum information;
• Symmetry aspect of classical and quantum chaos;
• Symmetries in particle, nucleare, atomic and molecular physics;
• Symmetries in condensed matter physics and statistical physics.
• Modern application of group theory in biology.

Partially overlapping these topics, we are planning as substructures the following Symposia consisting of several parallel sessions:

• Symposium on Quantum Groups and Supersymmetry, (co-organizer Vladimir Dobrev and Alexey Isaev )
• Symposium on Group Theory and Superintegrability, (co-organizer Ernie Kalnins and Willard Miller)
• Symposium on Symmetries of Differenc equations and Discrete Phenomena, (co-organizers Pavel Winternitz and Decio Levi)
