The only graduate-level textbook on quantum field theory that fully
integrates perspectives from high-energy, condensed-matter, and
statistical physics Quantum field theory was originally developed
to describe quantum electrodynamics and other fundamental problems
in high-energy physics, but today has become an invaluable
conceptual and mathematical framework for addressing problems
across physics, including in condensed-matter and statistical
physics. With this expansion of applications has come a new and
deeper understanding of quantum field theory-yet this perspective
is still rarely reflected in teaching and textbooks on the subject.
Developed from a year-long graduate course Eduardo Fradkin has
taught for years to students of high-energy, condensed-matter, and
statistical physics, this comprehensive textbook provides a fully
"multicultural" approach to quantum field theory, covering the full
breadth of its applications in one volume. Brings together
perspectives from high-energy, condensed-matter, and statistical
physics in both the main text and exercises Takes students from
basic techniques to the frontiers of physics Pays special attention
to the relation between measurements and propagators and the
computation of cross sections and response functions Focuses on
renormalization and the renormalization group, with an emphasis on
fixed points, scale invariance, and their role in quantum field
theory and phase transitions Other topics include non-perturbative
phenomena, anomalies, and conformal invariance Features numerous
examples and extensive problem sets Also serves as an invaluable
resource for researchers
