  • Basic Concepts of String Theory

    by Ralph Blumenhagen, Dieter Lüst, Stefan Theisen ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    The purpose of this book is to thoroughly prepare the reader for research in string theory at an intermediate level. As such it is not a compendium of results but intended as textbook in the sense that most of the material is organized in a pedagogical and self-contained fashion.Beyond the basics, a number of more advanced topics are introduced, such as conformal field theory, superstrings and ...

  • Computer Algebra in Quantum Field Theory

    Integration, Summation and Special Functions

    Edited by Carsten Schneider, Johannes Blümlein ...
    Series series Computer Science (R0)
    The book focuses on advanced computer algebra methods and special functions that have striking applications in the context of quantum field theory. It presents the state of the art and new methods for (infinite) multiple sums, multiple integrals, in particular Feynman integrals, difference and differential equations in the format of survey articles. The presented techniques emerge from ... Read more

  • BRST Symmetry and de Rham Cohomology

    by Soon-Tae Hong ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book provides an advanced introduction to extended theories of quantum field theory and algebraic topology, including Hamiltonian quantization associated with some geometrical constraints, symplectic embedding and Hamilton-Jacobi quantization and Becci-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) symmetry, as well as de Rham cohomology. It offers a critical overview of the research in this area and unifies the ... Read more

  • Lectures on LHC Physics

    by Tilman Plehn ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    With the discovery of the Higgs boson, the LHC experiments have closed the most important gap in our understanding of fundamental interactions, confirming that such interactions between elementary particles can be described by quantum field theory, more specifically by a renormalizable gauge theory. This theory is a priori valid for arbitrarily high energy scales and does not require an ... Read more

  • Symmetries in Fundamental Physics

    by Kurt Sundermeyer ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Over the course of the last century it has become clear that both elementary particle physics and relativity theories are based on the notion of symmetries. These symmetries become manifest in that the "laws of nature" are invariant under spacetime transformations and/or gauge transformations. The consequences of these symmetries were analyzed as early as in 1918 by Emmy Noether on the level of ... Read more

  • Analytic Tools for Feynman Integrals

    by Vladimir A. Smirnov ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    The goal of this book is to describe the most powerful methods for evaluating multiloop Feynman integrals that are currently used in practice. This book supersedes the author’s previous Springer book “Evaluating Feynman Integrals” and its textbook version “Feynman Integral Calculus.” Since the publication of these two books, powerful new methods have arisen and conventional methods have been ...

  • Non-minimal Higgs Inflation and Frame Dependence in Cosmology

    by Christian Friedrich Steinwachs ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This thesis explores the idea that the Higgs boson of the Standard Model and the cosmological inflation are just two manifestations of one and the same scalar field - the Higgs-inflation. By this unification two energy scales that are separated by many orders of magnitude are connected, thereby building a bridge between particle physics and cosmology. An essential ingredient for making this model ... Read more

  • Quantum Field Theory I

    Foundations and Abelian and Non-Abelian Gauge Theories

    by Edouard B. Manoukian ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    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 ...

  • Quantum Aspects of Black Holes

    Edited by Xavier Calmet ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Beginning with an overview of the theory of black holes by the editor, this book presents a collection of ten chapters by leading physicists dealing with the variety of quantum mechanical and quantum gravitational effects pertinent to black holes. The contributions address topics such as Hawking radiation, the thermodynamics of black holes, the information paradox and firewalls, Monsters, ... Read more

  • A Bayesian Analysis of QCD Sum Rules

    by Philipp Gubler ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    The author develops a novel analysis method for QCD sum rules (QCDSR) by applying the maximum entropy method (MEM) to arrive at an analysis with less artificial assumptions than previously held. This is a first-time accomplishment in the field.In this thesis, a reformed MEM for QCDSR is formalized and is applied to the sum rules of several channels: the light-quark meson in the vector channel, the ...

    by Francesco Knechtli, Michael Günther, Michael Peardon ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book provides an overview of the techniques central to lattice quantum chromodynamics, including modern developments.The book has four chapters. The first chapter explains the formulation of quarks and gluons on a Euclidean lattice. The second chapter introduces Monte Carlo methods and details the numerical algorithms to simulate lattice gauge fields. Chapter three explains the mathematical ... Read more

  • Gauge Invariance and Weyl-polymer Quantization

    by Franco Strocchi ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    The book gives an introduction to Weyl non-regular quantization suitable for the description of physically interesting quantum systems, where the traditional Dirac-Heisenberg quantization is not applicable. The latter implicitly assumes that the canonical variables describe observables, entailing necessarily the regularity of their exponentials (Weyl operators). However, in physically interesting ...
