On the Riemann-Hilbert problem and stable vector bundles on 
the Riemann sphere
(246K, postscript)

ABSTRACT.  In this note we give a brief survey of recent results on 
the classical Riemann-Hilbert problem for differential equations on the Riemann sphere. We emphasize geometrical aspects of the problem involving the notion of stability of vector bundles with connections.
