This ambitious and original book sets out to introduce to
mathematicians (even including graduate students ) the mathematical
methods of theoretical and experimental quantum field theory, with
an emphasis on coordinate-free presentations of the mathematical
objects in use. This in turn promotes the interaction between
mathematicians and physicists by supplying a common and flexible
language for the good of both communities, though mathematicians
are the primary target. This reference work provides a coherent and
complete mathematical toolbox for classical and quantum field
theory, based on categorical and homotopical methods, representing
an original contribution to the literature. The first part of the
book introduces the mathematical methods needed to work with the
physicists' spaces of fields, including parameterized and
functional differential geometry, functorial analysis, and the
homotopical geometric theory of non-linear partial differential
equations, with applications to general gauge theories. The second
part presents a large family of examples of classical field
theories, both from experimental and theoretical physics, while the
third part provides an introduction to quantum field theory,
presents various renormalization methods, and discusses the
quantization of factorization algebras.
