书目名称 | Quantum Gravitation | 副标题 | The Feynman Path Int | 编辑 | Herbert W. Hamber | 视频video | | 概述 | Offers a self-contained, yet comprehensive, introduction to quantum gravitation based on the traditional, well tested covariant approach that forms the basis for a modern treatment of gauge theories.S | 图书封面 |  | 描述 | .The book covers the theory of Quantum Gravitation from the point of view of Feynman path integrals. These provide a manifestly covariant approach in which fundamental quantum aspects of the theory such as radiative corrections and the renormalization group can be systematically and consistently addressed. The path integral method is suitable for both perturbative as well as non-perturbative studies, and is known to already provide a framework of choice for the theoretical investigation of non-abelian gauge theories, the basis for three of the four known fundamental forces in nature. The book thus provides a coherent outline of the present status of the theory gravity based on Feynman’s formulation, with an emphasis on quantitative results....Topics are organized in such a way that the correspondence to similar methods and results in modern gauge theories becomes apparent. Covariant perturbation theory are developed using the full machinery of Feynman rules, gauge fixing, background methods and ghosts. The renormalization group for gravity and the existence of non-trivial ultraviolet fixed points are investigated, stressing a close correspondence with well understood statistical fi | 出版日期 | Book 2009 | 关键词 | Cosmology; Covariant Quantization; Feynman Path Integral; Gravitational constant; Gravity; Quantum Cosmol | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-540-85293-3 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-642-09900-7 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-540-85293-3 | copyright | Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2009 |
