Gauge theory of elementary particle physics
by Cheng, Ta-Pei, Li, Ling-Fong
fromOxford science publications
This volume discusses fundamental aspects of quantum field theory and of gauge theories, with attention to mathematical consistency. Basic issues of the standard model of elementary particles (Higgs mechanism and chiral symmetry breaking in quantum chromodynamics) are treated wi…
This book covers quantum field theory at an introductory level appropriate for graduate students in physics. The first volume aims to allow students to begin their research in fields using quantum field theory, such as particle physics, nuclear physics, cosmology and astrophysic…
Conformal field theory with gauge symmetry
by Ueno, Kenji
fromFields Institute Monographs
"This book presents a systematic approach to conformal field theory with gauge symmetry from the point of view of complex algebraic geometry. After presenting the basic facts of the theory of compact Riemann surfaces and the representation theory of affine Lie algebras in Chapte…
Path integrals in field theory: an introduction
This book presents a brief introduction to the quantum field theory of the Standard Model for quarks and leptons. With minimal use of mathematics, it covers the basics of quantum field theory, local gauge field theory, spontaneous symmetry breaking mechanism, the Higgs mechanism…
