Lectures On Quantum Field Theory
This book comprises the lectures of a two-semester course on quantum field theory, presented in a quite informal and personal manner. Canonical quantization is carried out for scalar, fermion, Abelian and non-Abelian gauge theories. The course starts with relativistic one-particle systems, and develops the basics of quantum field theory with an analysis on the representations of the Poincar group.
The Higgs phenomenon and the standard model of electroweak interactions are also developed systematically. Covariant quantization of gauge theories is also carried out with a detailed description of the BRST symmetry. Regularization and (BPHZ) renormalization of field theories as well as gauge theories are discussed in detail, leading to a derivation of the renormalization group equation.
In addition, two chapters -- one on the Dirac quantization of constrained systems and another on discrete
