Description
Book SynopsisPresents articles originating from invited talks at an international conference held at The Fields Institute in Toronto celebrating the sixtieth birthday of the renowned mathematician, Vladimir Arnold. This work focuses on topics including: singularity theory, the theory of curves, symmetry groups, dynamical systems and mechanics.
