Review text

In this large survey the following subjects are treated : the structure \(Spin^c\), the Clifford algebra, the Dirac equations, the Seiberg-Witten equations, the Thom conjecture. The last section contains a discussion of the implications to modern physics of the presented results. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0866.00026].
