Forty papers from the conference held in S<~a>o Paulo, Brazil (date of conference not noted) on such topics as alternative, Jordan, Lie, and Bernstein and Malcev algebras and superalgebras, including applications to population genetics theory and physics. Other subjects include the geometric properties of smooth quasigroups defined by the left square distributive identity, the construction of Toda-type equations in low- and high-dimensional spaces, and an approach to construct a zero curvature representation for integrable theories in spacetimes of dimension d + 1 by the introduction of a d -form connection.
