Synopsis

The Surveys in Differential Geometry are supplements to the Journal of Differential Geometry, which are published by International Press. They include significant invited papers combining original research and overviews of the most current research in specific areas of interest to the growing Journal of Differential Geometry community. The survey volumes serve as continuing references, inspirations for new research, and introductions to the variety of topics of interest to differential geometers. These supplements are published annually since 1999.

The theory of integrable systems has been an active area of mathematics for the past thirty years. Different aspects of the subject have fundamental relations with mechanics and dynamics, applied mathematics, algebraic structures, theoretical physics, analysis and spectral theory and geometry. This volume (Vol. 4) is a collection of papers intended to introduce and explain some of the more geometric aspects of integrable systems to the community.
