Global integrability of field theories

This volume contains the conference proceedings of the Workshop on Global Integrability of Field Theories GIFT 2006 (Cockcroft Institute, Daresbury, UK, 11-01-06 11-03-06), which served as the final conference of the European NEST project GIFT. Within its scope, hitherto unrelated results from various domains including algebraic topology, computer algebra, differential Galois theory, integrable systems, formal theory of differential equations and physical field theories were combined.
