The book contains seven refereed research papers on locally compact quantum groups and groupoids by leading experts in the respective fields. These contributions are based on talks presented on the occasion of the meeting between mathematicians and theoretical physicists held in Strasbourg from February 21 to February 23, 2002. Topics covered are: various constructions of locally compact quantum groups and their multiplicative unitaries; duality theory for locally compact quantum groups; combinatorial quantization of flat connections associated with SL(2, c); quantum groupoids, especially...

This volume contains nine refereed research papers in various areas from combinatorics to dynamical systems, with computer algebra as an underlying and unifying theme. Topics covered include irregular connections, rank reduction and summability of solutions of differential systems, asymptotic behaviour of divergent series, integrability of Hamiltonian systems, multiple zeta values, quasi-polynomial formalism, PadE approximants related to analytic integrability, hybrid systems. The interactions between computer algebra, dynamical systems and combinatorics discussed in this volume should be...
