These notes mean to give an expository but rigorous introduction to the basic concepts of relativistic perturbative quantum field theories, specifically…

Spectral Standard Model and String Compactifications
The Connes-Lott-Chamseddine-Barrett model is the observation that the standard model of particle physics -- as a classical action functional,…

Struggles with the Continuum: Spacetime Conclusion
We've been looking at how the continuum nature of spacetime poses problems for our favorite theories of physics --- problems with infinities.…

Struggles with the Continuum: General Relativity
Combining electromagnetism with relativity and quantum mechanics led to QED. Last time we saw the immense struggles with the continuum this…

LHC Part 4: Searching for New Particles and Decays
The LHC experiments are in full swing collecting data this year (more information in the forum), and a while ago the collaboration of the…

Struggles with the Continuum – Relativity and Quantum
In this series, we're looking at mathematical problems that arise in physics due to treating spacetime as a continuum---basically, problems…
