Abstract

Quantum physics on manifolds with boundary exhibit interesting and unexpected phenomena due to boundary conditions. These come about in various areas of physics like edge states of quantum Hall effect, horizon states of black holes, holography, anomalies etc. We will also point out some new developments.
