Galileo as founder of mathematical physics

Mathematical physics.

We dedicate this issue of Communications in Mathematical Physics to our dear friend and colleague Roland Dobrushin, who died of cancer on November 13, 1995, at the age of 65. Dobrushin was not only a great, classic scientist, but he was also a man of integrity, courage, and good humor. These qualities stood out at a time and place where they were extremely scarce commodities. His joy of life wa...

We extend the analysis [18] of the canonical structure of the Wess-Zumino-Witten theory to the bulk and boundary coset G/H models. The phase spaces of the coset theories in the closed and in the open geometry appear to coincide with those of a double ChernSimons theory on two different 3-manifolds. In particular, we obtain an explicit description of the canonical structure of the boundary G/G c...
