Résumé
This book was originally published in 2006. Moonshine concerns the mysterious connection between the monster finite group and modular functions from classical number theory. This unique book describes the general theory of Moonshine and its underlying concepts, emphasizing the interconnections between modem mathematics and mathematical physics. Clearly written and pedagogical, it is ideal for researchers working in areas such as conformai field theory, string theory, algebra, number theory, geometry and functional analysis.
It is also a suitable textbook for graduate courses on Moonshine and as supplementary reading for courses on conformai field theory or Lie theory.
It is also a suitable textbook for graduate courses on Moonshine and as supplementary reading for courses on conformai field theory or Lie theory.
