Differential Geometric Methods in Mathematical Physics Proceedings of the 14th International Conference held in Salamanca, Spain, June 24 - 29, 1985

The focal topic of the 14th International Conference on Differential Geometric Methods was that of mathematical problems in classical field theory and the emphasis of the resulting proceedings volume is on superfield theory and related topics, and classical and quantized fields.
