Synopsis

The Collected Papers of Raoul Bott are contained in five volumes, with each volume covering a different subject and each representing approximately a decade of Bott's work. The volumes are:
Volume 1: Topology and Lie Groups (1950's)
Volume 2: Differential Operators (1960's)
Volume 3: Foliations (1970's)
Volume 4: Mathematics Related to Physics (1980's)
Volume 5: Completive Articles and Additional Biographic Material (1990's)

Most of the papers in this volume deal with two physical-inspired themes: the Yang-Mills equations and the rigidity phenomena of vector bundles. It also contains Bott's own commentaries on a few of the papers, as well as a tribute by Clifford Taubes.
