Mathematical Aspects of Quantum Field Theories

Mathematical Aspects of Quantum Field Theories edited by Damien Calaque, Thomas Strobl.

Despite its long history and stunning experimental successes, the mathematical foundation of perturbative quantum field theory is still a subject of ongoing research. This book aims at presenting some of the most recent advances in the field, and at reflecting the diversity of approaches and tools i...
