After the development of manifolds and algebraic varieties in the previous century, mathematicians and physicists have continued to advance concepts of space. These books explore various new notions of space, including both formal and conceptual points of view, as presented by leading experts at the New Spaces in Mathematics and Physics workshop held at the Institut Henri Poincaré in 2015. They are addressed primarily to mathematicians and mathematical physicists, but also to historians and philosophers of these disciplines.

Features
• An introduction to a vast array of notions of 'space' in mathematics and physics, suitable for graduates and researchers
• Addressed to mathematicians and mathematical physicists, but also suitable for historians and philosophers of these disciplines
• Includes chapters written by leading mathematicians and theoretical physicists (including two Fields Medallists)
