The purpose of this book is to illustrate some of the most
important techniques which are helpful in combinatorial problems
when computing quantum effects in covariant theories, like general
relativity. In fact, most of the techniques find application also
in broader contexts, such as low energy effective (chiral)
Lagrangians or even in specific problems in condensed matter. Some
of the topics covered are: the background field approach and the
heat kernel ideas. The arguments are explained in some detail and
the presentation is meant for young researchers and advanced
students who are starting working in the field. As prerequisite the
reader should have attended a course in quantum field theory
including Feynman's path integral. In the Appendix a nontrivial
calculation of one-loop divergences in Einstein-Hilbert gravity is
explained step-by-step.
