These two volumes contain original contributions of Alexei Zamolodchikov (1952–2007), who was a prominent theoretical physicist of his time. Volume 1 contains his work on conformal field theories, 2D quantum gravity and Liouville theory. Volume 2 includes his pioneering work on non-perturbative methods in 2D quantum field theory and on integrable models. Both volumes can be used as an advanced textbook by graduate students specializing in string theory, conformal field theory and integrable models of quantum field theory. They are also highly relevant to experts in these fields.
