This book collects the papers published by A. Borel from 1983 to 1999. About half of them are research papers, written on his own or in collaboration, on various topics pertaining mainly to algebraic or Lie groups, homogeneous spaces, arithmetic groups (L2-spectrum, automorphic forms, cohomology and covolumes), L2-cohomology of symmetric or locally symmetric spaces, and to the Oppenheim conjecture. Other publications include surveys and personal recollections (of D. Montgomery, Harish-Chandra, and A. Weil), considerations on mathematics in general and several articles of a historical nature:…mehr

Other publications include surveys and personal recollections (of D. Montgomery, Harish-Chandra, and A. Weil), considerations on mathematics in general and several articles of a historical nature: on the School of Mathematics at the Institute for Advanced Study, on N. Bourbaki and on selected aspects of the works of H. Weyl, C. Chevalley, E. Kolchin, J. Leray, and A. Weil. The book concludes with an essay on H. Poincaré and special relativity. Some comments on, and corrections to, a number of papers have also been added.
Autorenporträt
Armand Borel (21 May 1923 -11 August 2003) was a Swiss mathematician, born in La Chaux-de-Fonds, and served as a professor at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey, United States from 1957 to 1993. From 1983 to 1986 he also served as a professor at the ETH Zurich. He primarily worked on algebraic topology and on the theory of Lie groups, and was one of the founders of the contemporary theory of linear algebraic groups. In 1992 he was awarded the Balzan Prize in recognition of his contributions to the field.
