    Based on courses held at the Feza GÜrsey Institute, this collection of survey articles introduces advanced graduate students to an exciting area on the border of mathematics and mathematical physics. Including articles by key names such as Calogero, Donagi and Mason, it features the algebro-geometric material from Donagi as well as the twistor space methods in Woodhouse's contribution, forming a bridge between the pure mathematics and the more physical approaches.

    • Includes contributions from some of the key researchers in the field
    • Bridges the gap between pure mathematics and the more physical approaches
