Differential characters form a model of what is nowadays called differential cohomology, which is the mathematical structure behind the higher gauge theories in physics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45274851737751,"sku":"9783319070339","price":2791.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783319070339.webp?v=1769281129","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/differential-characters-9783319070339","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
