Book on Feynmann diagrammatica and renormalization group

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on the need for resources related to Feynman diagrams and the renormalization group in the context of physics. A specific recommendation is made for the book "A Guide to Feynman Diagrams in the Many-Body Problem" by Mattuck, which is deemed suitable for those looking to understand these concepts with practical examples. The participant emphasizes their background in physics, including knowledge of ordinary differential equations (ODE), partial differential equations (PDE), and Feynman integrals, while acknowledging a gap in their understanding of renormalization and Feynman graphs.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Ordinary Differential Equations (ODE)
  • Understanding of Partial Differential Equations (PDE)
  • Familiarity with Feynman integrals
  • Basic knowledge of particle physics concepts
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the concept of renormalization in quantum field theory
  • Study advanced Feynman diagram techniques and calculations
  • Explore many-body physics applications of Feynman diagrams
  • Read "Quantum Field Theory" by Mark Srednicki for a comprehensive overview
USEFUL FOR

Students and professionals in physics, particularly those interested in particle physics and many-body physics, as well as anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of Feynman diagrams and renormalization techniques.

i would need some good books (with examples) in the following subjects

- Feynman diagramas (how to calculate them)

- Renormalization group

my background: i have got a degree on physics, so i know what ODE , PDE , or even the Feynman integral and propagator, but i did not study the part of 'renormalization' and 'Feynmann graphs'

which are the applications you are looking for? Particle Physics? many body physics?
 
There's a Dover book by Mattuck, "A Guide to Feynman Diagrams in the Many-Body Problem" which I think will meet your requirements.
