Gauge Fields - Introduction to Quantum Theory

This book focuses on the methods applied in the field theory of relativistic strings, which represent a direct generalization of the methods of gauge field theory. It deals with the geometrical aspects of the gauge field theory and illuminates the quantum theory of the Yang-Mills fields.

List of contents

* Introduction: Fundamentals of Classical Gauge Field Theory * Quantum Theory in Terms of Path Integrals * Quantization of the Yang-Mills Field * Renormalization of Gauge Theories * Some Application and Conclusion
