A bridge from classical mechanics to quantum field theory

Based on lectures delivered at the Fall Workshop on Geometry and Physics from 2014 to 2016, this volume connects mathematical and physics-oriented treatments of quantum theory. Its tutorial approach introduces several methods of quantization and considers how they relate to modern mathematical methods. The emphasis on both sides of the subject makes the book a guide to the conceptual and methodological links between physics and mathematics, with quantum field theory as the destination named in its title.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Advanced graduate and PhD students studying mathematics or physics
  • Early-career researchers seeking an introduction to quantization methods and their mathematical connections

Book overview

This book collects an extended version of the lectures delivered by the authors at the Fall Workshop on Geometry and Physics in the years 2014, 2015, 2016.

It aims at introducing advanced graduate and PhD students, as well as young researchers, to current research in mathematics and physics. In particular, it fills the gap between the more physical-oriented and the more mathematical-oriented literature on quantum theory. It introduces various approaches to methods of quantization, along with their impact on modern mathematical methods.
