SUMMARY



A one-week spring school was followed by a one-week conference focusing on algebraic and combinatorial aspects of modern quantum field theory. This meeting was aimed at enhancing the understanding of the interaction of these subjects amongst researchers from both mathematics and physics. The main topics of the school (1st week) included mathematical aspects of advanced modern quantum field theory and gauge theory, statistical physics, condensed matter physics and renormalization group theory. The conference (2nd week) focused on applications of Hopf algebras, algebraic combinatorics, local dynamical system theory and special function theory to quantum field theory in all its facets. Both the school and conference took place in the Cargese region of Corsica (France), at the Institut d'Etudes Scientifiques de Cargese. The main motivation for the school and conference was to offer the opportunity for a broad discussion and exchange of ideas among Mathematicians and Physicists.

Most slides of the lectures and conferences are available below, as well as some bibliographical references.
