Synopsis Problems in Quantum Mechanics and Field Theory with Mathematical Modelling by : Aleksander V. Chichurin

In Problems in Quantum Mechanics and Field Theory with Mathematical Modelling, a number of exactly solvable problems in electrodynamics and in quantum-mechanics of particles with different spins are presented. The main topics covered include: the Cox scalar particle with intrinsic structure in presence of the magnetic field in the spaces of constant curvature, Euclid, Riemann, and Lobachevsky; Cox particle in the Coulomb field; tunneling effect through Schwarzschild barrier for a spin 1/2 particle; electromagnetic field in Schwarzschild space-time, the Majorana - Oppenheimer approach in electrodynamics; scalar particle with polarizability in the Coulomb field; Dirac particle in the Coulomb field on the background of hyperbolic Lobachevsky and spherical Riemann models; particle with spin 1 in the Coulomb field; geometrical modeling of the media in Maxwell electrodynamics; P-asymmetric equation for a spin 1/2 particle; fermion with two mass parameters in the Coulomb field; helicity operator for a spin 2 particle in presence of the magnetic field. The book will be of interest to researchers, and is accessible enough to serve as a self-study resources for courses at undergraduate and graduate levels.

Synopsis Modern Quantum Field Theory by : Tom Banks

Presenting a variety of topics that are only briefly touched on in other texts, this book provides a thorough introduction to the techniques of field theory. Covering Feynman diagrams and path integrals, the author emphasizes the path integral approach, the Wilsonian approach to renormalization, and the physics of non-abelian gauge theory. It provides a thorough treatment of quark confinement and chiral symmetry breaking, topics not usually covered in other texts at this level. The Standard Model of particle physics is discussed in detail. Connections with condensed matter physics are explored, and there is a brief, but detailed, treatment of non-perturbative semi-classical methods. Ideal for graduate students in high energy physics and condensed matter physics, the book contains many problems,which help students practise the key techniques of quantum field theory.

Synopsis Quantum Theory for Mathematicians by : Brian C. Hall

Although ideas from quantum physics play an important role in many parts of modern mathematics, there are few books about quantum mechanics aimed at mathematicians. This book introduces the main ideas of quantum mechanics in language familiar to mathematicians. Readers with little prior exposure to physics will enjoy the book's conversational tone as they delve into such topics as the Hilbert space approach to quantum theory; the Schrödinger equation in one space dimension; the Spectral Theorem for bounded and unbounded self-adjoint operators; the Stone–von Neumann Theorem; the Wentzel–Kramers–Brillouin approximation; the role of Lie groups and Lie algebras in quantum mechanics; and the path-integral approach to quantum mechanics. The numerous exercises at the end of each chapter make the book suitable for both graduate courses and independent study. Most of the text is accessible to graduate students in mathematics who have had a first course in real analysis, covering the basics of L2 spaces and Hilbert spaces. The final chapters introduce readers who are familiar with the theory of manifolds to more advanced topics, including geometric quantization.

Synopsis Mathematical Aspects of Quantum Field Theory by : Edson de Faria

Over the last century quantum field theory has made a significant impact on the formulation and solution of mathematical problems and inspired powerful advances in pure mathematics. However, most accounts are written by physicists, and mathematicians struggle to find clear definitions and statements of the concepts involved. This graduate-level introduction presents the basic ideas and tools from quantum field theory to a mathematical audience. Topics include classical and quantum mechanics, classical field theory, quantization of classical fields, perturbative quantum field theory, renormalization, and the standard model. The material is also accessible to physicists seeking a better understanding of the mathematical background, providing the necessary tools from differential geometry on such topics as connections and gauge fields, vector and spinor bundles, symmetries and group representations.

Synopsis Many-Body Problems and Quantum Field Theory by : Philippe Andre Martin

Emphasis is placed on analogies between the various systems rather than on advanced or specialized aspects, with the purpose of illustrating common ideas within different domains of physics. Starting from a basic knowledge of quantum mechanics and classical electromagnetism, the exposition is self-contained and explicitly details all steps of the derivations. The new edition features a substantially new treatment of nucleon pairing.

Synopsis Problem Book in Quantum Field Theory by : Voja Radovanovic

The Problem Book in Quantum Field Theory contains about 200 problems with solutions or hints that help students to improve their understanding and develop skills necessary for pursuing the subject. It deals with the Klein-Gordon and Dirac equations, classical field theory, canonical quantization of scalar, Dirac and electromagnetic fields, the processes in the lowest order of perturbation theory, renormalization and regularization. The solutions are presented in a systematic and complete manner. The material covered and the level of exposition make the book appropriate for graduate and undergraduate students in physics, as well as for teachers and researchers.
