Notes on Topological Quantum Field Theory
These notes are meant to provide an introduction to topological quantum field theory for mathematicians. Topics include applications of Chern-Simons theory to the study of knots and Atiyah’s definition of a topological quantum field theory. We also include a self-contained introduction to Yang-Mills theory for physical motivation.
متن کاملFunctional Determinants in Quantum Field Theory
Lecture notes on Functional Determinants in Quantum Field Theory given by Gerald Dunne at the 14th WE Heraeus Saalburg summer school in Wolfersdorf, Thuringia, in September 2008. Lecture notes taken by Babette Döbrich and exercises with solutions by Oliver Schlotterer.
متن کاملUndergraduate Lecture Notes in Topological Quantum Field Theory
These third–year lecture notes are designed for a 1–semester course in topological quantum field theory (TQFT). Assumed background in mathematics and physics are only standard second–year subjects: multivariable calculus, introduction to quantum mechanics and basic electromagnetism.
متن کاملIntersection Theory , Integrable Hierarchies and Topological Field Theory ∗
In these lecture notes we review the various relations between intersection theory on the moduli space of Riemann surfaces, integrable hierarchies of KdV type, matrix models, and topological field theory. We focus in particular on the question why matrix integrals of the type considered by Kontsevich naturally appear as τ -functions of integrable hierarchies related to topological minimal model...
متن کاملLectures on topological field theories
These lecture notes cover my talks at the June 2009 “Geometry of Quantum Fields and Strings” summer school at the University of Pennsylvania. I begin by giving a very brief introduction to quantum field theory, quickly moving to nonlinear sigma models and the associated A and B model topological field theories, and the physical realization of derived categories. Later lectures will cover Landau...
