书目名称 | EPFL Lectures on Conformal Field Theory in D ≥ 3 Dimensions | 编辑 | Slava Rychkov | 视频video | | 概述 | Includes supplementary material: | 丛书名称 | SpringerBriefs in Physics | 图书封面 |  | 描述 | .This primer develops Conformal Field Theory (CFT) from scratch, whereby CFT is viewed as any conformally-invariant theory that describes a fixed point of a renormalization group flow in quantum field theory..The book is divided into four lectures: Lecture 1 addresses the physical foundations of conformal invariance, while Lecture 2 examines the constraints imposed by conformal symmetry on the correlation functions of local operators, presented using the so-called projective null cone – a procedure also known as the embedding formalism. In turn, Lecture 3 focuses on the radial quantization and the operator product expansion, while Lecture 4 offers a very brief introduction to the conformal bootstrap.. .Derived from course-based notes, these lectures are intended as a first point of entry to this topic for Master and PhD students alike.. | 出版日期 | Book 2017 | 关键词 | CFT primer; Conformal bootstrap; Fixed point theories; Conformal invariance; Renormalization group flows | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-43626-5 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-43625-8 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-43626-5Series ISSN 2191-5423 Series E-ISSN 2191-5431 | issn_series | 2191-5423 | copyright | The Author(s) 2017 |
