Editors’ preface for the topical issue “Instantons, coherent sheaves and their moduli spaces” : Open Mathematics

摘要

The 22 papers included into the current issue of the Central European Journal of Mathematics spin around the topics ofthe conference “Instantons in complex geometry”, held on March 14–18, 2011 in Moscow. The main goal of the conferencewas to bring together specialists in complex algebraic and analytic geometries whose research interests belong to thiscomposite area between gauge theory, moduli spaces, derived categories, vector bundles and coherent sheaves. Besidesthe most relevant contributions to the conference, the issue contains miscellaneous articles by other authors that fit bysubject and spirit.
