Note
"As the 9th International Research Institute of the Mathematical Society of Japan, an international conference on 'Integrable Systems in Differential Geometry' was held at the University of Tokyo, during the period 17-21 July 2000. This volume consists primarily of survey articles based on the theme of the conference."--Pref

Description and Table of Contents
Description
The articles in this volume provide a panoramic view of the role of geometry in integrable systems, firmly rooted in surface theory but currently branching out in all directions.The longer articles by Bobenko (the Bonnet problem), Dorfmeister (the generalized Weierstrass representation), Joyce (special Lagrangian 3-folds) and Terng (geometry of soliton equations) are substantial surveys of several aspects of the subject. The shorter ones indicate more briefly how the classical ideas have spread throughout differential geometry, symplectic geometry, algebraic geometry, and theoretical physics.Published by Mathematical Society of Japan and distributed by World Scientific Publishing Co. for all markets except North America
