This book was released on 2003-07-07 with total page 507 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is the seventh in a series of proceedings on theoretical physics related to various aspects of the structure of condensed matter and to appropriate mathematical methods for adequate description. Three main topics are considered: conformal symmetry, central charge, condensation of flux; rigged string configurations, Yang-Baxter equations and their applications in solid state physics; and energy band structure in solids.
