This text presents an intuitive and robust mathematical image of
fundamental particle physics based on a novel approach to quantum
field theory, which is guided by four carefully motivated
metaphysical postulates. In particular, the book explores a
dissipative approach to quantum field theory, which is illustrated
for scalar field theory and quantum electrodynamics, and proposes
an attractive explanation of the Planck scale in quantum gravity.
Offering a radically new perspective on this topic, the book
focuses on the conceptual foundations of quantum field theory and
ontological questions. It also suggests a new stochastic simulation
technique in quantum field theory which is complementary to
existing ones. Encouraging rigor in a field containing many
mathematical subtleties and pitfalls this text is a helpful
companion for students of physics and philosophers interested in
quantum field theory, and it allows readers to gain an intuitive
rather than a formal understanding.
