description: The 38 papers represent a cross-fertilization between various fields of physical science and the underlying mathematics, creating links between researchers across disciplinary boundaries. The topics include heat-kernel asymptotics of the Gilkey-Smith boundary-value problem, geometric concepts for the mass in general relativity, gauge invariance and effective actions at finite temperatures, and molecular configurations and Euclidean distance matrices. They are not indexed. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
