In QFT (Quantum Field Theory) photons are described by the quantized EM field. Or, perhaps it's better to say that the Quantum Field...

Absolutely - but the is thread is 'Highschool' level and this level of discussion could confuse someone with Highschool Maths and...

Fair enough. I really should have said for: HS students at the pop-sci level. Of course, at that level, there is confusion between a...

I found the following interesting: https://ctrk.klclick1.com/l/01KG5PPJ0FMG5PHBSE7YST7PXZ_12 I have no idea if you need a subscription...

Here is the relevant passage from the paper (bold emphasis by me): Alfred Landé and Werner Heisenberg had defended such half-integral...

God, I hope so. My psychiatrist (I go for other reasons as well, due to depression associated with my autoimmune disease) has discussed...

I ended up here looking for an answer to a question and am extremely grateful for the prompt and informative answer. I'm neither...

With your math background, you can study Telagrand for sure. I know you did number theory, but all you need is standard upper...

I have the book, years ago i found a cheap used copy. I asked because for me this is the only QFT book that i have been able to study...

I had written this from memory, and was wrong. Actually.Hida distributions can be used to construct the Feynman path integral (which is...

Sorry, don't know Folland. Someone else may be able to help. Looked it up though - it's devilishly expensive. If interested probably...

This is the Euclidean (Feynman-Kac) path integral, which is mathematically better behaved. But QFT needs the Minkowski (Feynman) path...

Indeed Thanks Bill

I also did that and if I am not mistaken and there are two people of that name, it is the mathematician who won the Able prize reciently.

Here, it's the same sequence, but what is done in 7, 8, 9, 10 is accelerated a bit, so it's done in 7, 8, 9. Like the US, not all...
