Ludwig Faddeev memorial volume: a life in mathematical physics

Ludwig Faddeev is widely recognised as one of the titans of 20th century mathematical physics.

His fundamental contributions to scattering theory, quantum gauge theories, and the theory of classical and quantum completely integrable systems played a key role in shaping modern mathematical physics.

Ludwig Faddeev's major achievements include the solution of the three-body problem in quantum mechanics, the mathematical formulation of quantum gauge theories and corresponding Feynman rules, Hamiltonian and algebraic methods in mathematical physics, with applications to gauge theories with anomalies, the discovery of the algebraic structure of classical and quantum integrable systems and quantum groups.

A gathering of contributions from some of the biggest names in mathematics and physics, this volume serves as a tribute to this legendary figure.
