Abstract

Contribution to the Proceedings of the International Congress of Mathematicians 1994. We review recent developments in the physics and mathematics of Yang-Mills theory in two dimensional spacetimes. This is a condensed version of a forthcoming review by S. Cordes, G. Moore, and S. Ramgoolam.
