Are there any QFT books written from a mathematical perspective? Something in the same vain as V. Arnolds Mechanics and Takhtajan's QM.
Thanks.
Thanks.
QFT stands for Quantum Field Theory, which is a theoretical framework used to describe the behavior of particles at a subatomic level. It combines principles of quantum mechanics and special relativity to understand and predict the behavior of particles and their interactions.
Vladimir Arnold and Leon Takhtajan are two prominent mathematicians who have made significant contributions to the field of QFT. They co-authored the book "Mathematical Methods of Classical Mechanics", which is considered a classic in the field and has been influential in the development of QFT.
This book focuses specifically on the mathematical foundations of QFT, providing a rigorous and comprehensive treatment of the subject. It also includes discussions on recent developments and applications, making it a valuable resource for both beginners and experts in the field.
Yes, this book can be used for self-study as it is well-structured and includes detailed explanations and examples. However, it is recommended to have a solid understanding of mathematical concepts such as calculus, linear algebra, and complex analysis before diving into this book.
As mentioned before, a strong foundation in mathematics is necessary for understanding this book. Additionally, some familiarity with quantum mechanics and special relativity would be helpful, but not essential.
