CIME (International Mathematical Summer Centre, Florence, Italy) organizes a

         *****     SUMMER SCHOOL ON QUANTUM COHOMOLOGY    ******

in Cetraro (Calabria, Italy) on June 30 to July 8, 1997. This school is
related to the Workshop Series on Algebraic Geometry and Physics.

Lecturers:

         of string theory
Gang Tian (MIT, Cambridge, USA): Gromov-Witten invariants and some applications
         to symplectic topology, enumerativve geometry, Floer theory and
         Hamiltonian systems
A. Varchenko (University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill; to be confirmed)
         Elliptic quantum groups and algebraic Bethe ansatz

Scientific Committee:

P. De Bartolomeis (Dip. di Matematica, Universita' di Firenze)
B. Dubrovin, C. Reina (SISSA, Trieste)
