Publisher Description
This volume offers an introduction to recent developments in several active topics of research at the interface between geometry, topology and quantum field theory. These include Hopf algebras underlying renormalization schemes in quantum field theory, noncommutative geometry with applications to index theory on one hand and the study of aperiodic solids on the other, geometry and topology of low dimensional manifolds with applications to topological field theory, Chern-Simons supergravity and the anti de Sitter/conformal field theory correspondence. It comprises seven lectures organized around three main topics, noncommutative geometry, topological field theory, followed by supergravity and string theory, complemented by some short communications by young participants of the school.

Dove is for sale. And the recently crowned king of the Mexican Cartel is the highest bidder. Sold to the crown of a blood-soaked empire, she becomes a pawn in a game played by the cruelest of men. Andres was born into the Cartel. It's the only life he's ever known. After his father's death, Andres asserts the throne. But he is not his father. The weight of his newfound power presses upon his shoulders. And his throne feels more like a prison than a privilege. Dove never imagined she'd get kidnapped while visiting her aunt in Mexico. When she gets purchased by a ruthless bidder, her only shot at freedom is to make a deal with the devil himself. Will she find the courage and cunning to outsmart her captor, or will she succumb to the shadows that threaten to consume her?
Hardened ex-DEA agent Ryan McCallister never expected to find himself working with the daughter of a notorious cartel boss. But when "Camila" Gómez approaches him with a dangerous deal - trade her freedom for his life - Ryan finds himself pulled into a deadly game of cat and mouse. Ryan McCallister is a former special forces soldier turned DEA agent with a reputation for being the coldest, most calculating killer in the game. Ryan has a long history with the Mexican cartels, having worked both sides of the law. But when he finds himself the target of a deadly deal orchestrated by the beautiful and determined Camila, he is forced to question everything - including his own capacity for love. Camila Gómez has spent her entire life trapped in the violent world of the Mexican cartels. Raised by a ruthless cartel boss who views her as a bargaining chip, Camila makes a desperate gamble - she'll trade her freedom to the DEA in exchange for their agent's life. But as she's forced to go on the run with Ryan, Camila begins to see past his lethal exterior and discovers a connection that challenges everything she thought she knew about love and loyalty.
