Frontiers in Number Theory, Physics, and Geometry II is written by Pierre E. Cartier and published by Springer Science & Business Media. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 3540303081 (ISBN 10) and 9783540303084 (ISBN 13).

Ten years after a 1989 meeting of number theorists and physicists at the Centre de Physique des Houches, a second event focused on the broader interface of number theory, geometry, and physics. This book is the first of two volumes resulting from that meeting. Broken into three parts, it covers Conformal Field Theories, Discrete Groups, and Renormalization, offering extended versions of the lecture courses and shorter texts on special topics.
