Selected topics on quadrature domains

This is a selection of facts, old and recent, about quadrature domains. The text, written in the form of a survey, is addressed to non-experts and covers a variety of phenomena related to quadrature domains. Such as: the difference between quadrature domains for subharmonic, harmonic and respectively complex analytic functions, geometric properties of the boundary, instability in the reverse Hele-Shaw flow, dependence and non-uniqueness on the quadrature data, interpretation in terms of function theory on Riemann surfaces, a matrix model and a reconstruction algorithm. Plus some low degree/order examples where computations can be carried out in detail
