The COPROMAPH Conference series has now evolved into a significant international arena where fundamental concepts in mathematical and theoretical physics and their physics applications can be conceived, developed and disseminated. Basic ideas for addressing a variety of contemporary problems in mathematical and theoretical physics are presented in a non-intimidating atmosphere. Experts provide the reader the fundamentals to predict new possibilities in physics and other fields.
