Kompletní popis

This§textbook covers a broad spectrum of developments in QFT, emphasizing those aspects§that are now well consolidated and for which satisfactory theoretical§descriptions have been provided. The book is unique in that it offers a new§approach to the subject and explores many topics merely touched upon, if§covered at all, in standard reference works.§§A detailed and largely non-technical introductory chapter§traces the development of QFT from its inception in 1926. The§elegant functional differential approach put forward by§Schwinger, referred to as the quantum dynamical (action) principle, and§its underlying theory are used systematically in order to generate§the so-called vacuum-to-vacuum transition amplitude of both abelian and§non-abelian gauge theories, in addition to Feynman's well-known functional§integral approach, referred to as the path-integral approach. Given§the wealth of information also to be found in the abelian case, equal§importance is put on both abelian and non-abelian gauge theories.§§Particular§emphasis is placed on the concept of a quantum field and its particle§content to provide an appropriate description of physical processes at§high energies, where relativity becomes indispensable. Moreover, quantum§mechanics implies that a wave function renormalization arises in the QFT§field independent of any perturbation theory - a point not sufficiently§emphasized in the literature. The book provides§an overview of all the fields encountered in present high-energy§physics, together with the details of the underlying derivations. Further,§it presents "deep inelastic" experiments as a fundamental§application of quantum chromodynamics.§§Though§the author makes a point of deriving points in detail, the book still requires good§background knowledge of quantum mechanics, including the Dirac Theory, as well§as elements of the Klein-Gordon equation. The§present volume sets the language, the notation and provides additional§background for reading Quantum Field Theory - Introduction to Quantum Gravity,§Supersymmetry and String Theory, by the same author. Students in this§field might benefit from first reading the book Quantum Theory: A Wide Spectrum§(Springer, 2006), by the same author.§§
