Progress in Mathematics: In Honor of the 65th Birthday of Hans Duistermaat

van den Ban, Erik P.; Kolk, Johan A.C.

Hans Duistermaat, an influential geometer-analyst, made substantial contributions to the theory of ordinary and partial differential equations, symplectic, differential, and algebraic geometry, minimal surfaces, semisimple Lie groups, mechanics, mathematical physics, and related fields. Written in his honor, the invited and refereed articles in this volume contain important new results as well as surveys in some of these areas, clearly demonstrating the impact of Duistermaat's research and, in addition, exhibiting interrelationships among many of the topics.

Contributors include J.-M. Bismut, L. Boutet de Monvel, Y. Colin de Verdière, R.H. Cushman, N. Dencker, F.A. Grünbaum, V.W. Guillemin, J.-C. Hausmann, G. Heckman, T. Holm, L.C. Jeffrey, F. Kirwan, E.
