Prerequisite

Basic knowledge of quantum fields and basic elements of perturbation theory

Introduction

This is a course on quantum field theory normally taught as a second semester of quantum field theory for physics graduate students.

Syllabus

The major themes of the course are the geometry and topology of the gauge fields, quantization of non-Abelian gauge fields,

their topological and geometric effects and geometric effects and quantum anomalies (the current anomaly and the gravitational anomaly).

Solving quantum field theory
AbstractWe explain how to solve quantum field theories (or renormalization group flows). (We assume little preliminary knowledge; I am planning to explain in a way accessible to advanced high-school students.)SpeakerMy main research area is (conformal) quantum field theory. More concretely, I am solving renormalization group (RG) flows. In particular, I succeeded to explain symmetry enhancement...

Hidden algebraic structures in geometry from quantum field theory
SpeakerDu Pei is currently an associate professor of quantum mathematics at the University of Southern Denmark. He obtained his Ph.D. in theoretical physics in 2016 from Caltech. His main research interests concern the geometric, algebraic and categorical properties of quantum field theory.AbstractThe existence of quantum field theories in higher dimensions predicts many hidden algebraic struct...
