Scientific Programme:
The main purpose of research in modern mathematical physics is the development of mathematical methods for solving the most important problems of modern theoretical physics: clarifying the nature of fundamental interactions and their symmetries, construction and study of effective field models arising in the theory of strings and other extended objects, uncovering the geometric description of quantum symmetries and their spontaneous breaking in the framework of search for a unified theory of all fundamental interactions, including quantum gravity. Mathematical physics in recent years has been characterized by increasing interest in identifying and effective used of integrability in various areas, and in applying powerful mathematical methods of quantum groups and non-commutative geometry to quantum theories of fundamental interactions as well as to classical models.
        The main goals and tasks of the research within the theme include: development of new mathematical methods for description of a variety of integrable models and their exact classical and quantum solutions; analysis of a wide range of problems in the theory of superstrings and superbranes, including study of nonperturbative regimes in supersymmetric gauge theories; development of a microscopic description of black holes and constructing cosmological models of the early Universe. The decisive factor to solve the above problems is a crucial use of the mathematical methods of the theory of integrable systems, quantum groups and noncommutative geometry.
