Introduction

1. From hadronic string model to M-theory

A summary about the evolution of TGD

1. Space-times as 4-surfaces

Quantum TGD in nutshell

1. Basic physical and geometric ideas

2. The notions of imbedding space, 3-surface, and configuration space

3. Could the Universe be doing Yangian arithmetics?

Can one apply Occam's razor as a general purpose debunking argument to TGD?

1. WCW level: a generalization of Einstein's geometrization program to entire quantum physics

2. Space-time level: many-sheeted space-time and emergence of classical fields and GRT space-time

3. Imbedding space level

Victories of M-theory from TGD view point

1. Super-conformal symmetries of string theory

2. Dualities of string theories

K-theory, branes, and TGD

1. Brane world scenario

2. The basic challenge: classify the conserved brane charges associated with branes
