Quantum Field Theory

by Romeo Brunetti (Editor), Claudio Dappiaggi (Editor), Klaus Fredenhagen (Editor), Jakob Yngvason (Editor)
Reference book on Algebraic Quantum Field Theory: from an introduction to the field up to the most recent advanced topics
Written and edited by leading experts in the field
Provides mathematicians with concrete applications for their techniques such as for example microlocal analysis or infinite dimensional calculus

An esteemed researcher and acclaimed popular author takes up the challenge of providing a clear, relatively brief, and fully up-to-date introduction to one of the most vital but notoriously difficult subjects in theoretical physics. A quantum field theory text for the twenty-first century, this book makes the essential tool of modern theoretical physics available to any student who has completed a course on quantum mechanics and is eager to go on…

This book is devoted to the subject of quantum field theory. It is divided into two volumes. The first can serve as a textbook on the main techniques and results of quantum field theory, while the second treats more recent developments, in particular the subject of quantum groups and noncommutative geometry, and their interrelation.
