After successful completion of the course, students are able to apply concepts from geometry and topology (as known e.g. from "Geometry, Topology and Physics I") to specific areas of fundamental physics.

• Some representation theory
• Principal bundles and associated vector bundles
• The Lorentz group and its double cover
• Aharonov-Bohm effect
• Monopoles
• Instantons
• Characteristic classes
• Index theorems
• Chiral anomaly
