Factorization Algebras in Quantum Field Theory

Beschreibung

Ideal for researchers and graduate students at the interface between mathematics and physics, this text develops quantum field theory from the ground up using a rich mix of modern mathematics. It provides a unified approach to deformation quantization, Hochschild homology, vertex algebras, conformal field theory, quantum groups, and gauge theory.
