KurzbeschreibungThe subject of the course is modern applications of quantum field theory with emphasis on the quantization of non-abelian gauge theories.
Lernziel
InhaltThe following topics will be covered:
- path integral quantization
- non-abelian gauge theories and their quantization
- systematics of renormalization, including BRST symmetries,
Slavnov-Taylor Identities and the Callan Symanzik equation
- gauge theories with spontaneous symmetry breaking and
their quantization
- renormalization of spontaneously broken gauge theories and
quantum effective actions
