Asymptotic Combinatorics with Applications to Mathematical Physics A European Mathematical Summer School held at the Euler Institute, St. Petersburg, Russia, July 9-20, 2001

At the Summer School Saint Petersburg 2001, the main lecture courses bore on recent progress in asymptotic representation theory: those written up for this volume deal with the theory of representations of infinite symmetric groups, and groups of infinite matrices over finite fields; Riemann-Hilbert...
