This book is a quite complete review of two dimensional models, from the Thirring model to Conformal theories, passing by QED2 and QCD2...It can be a useful tool if you already know something about the two dimensions: the authors are sometimes not clear and make involved what is simple.

This highly pedagogical textbook for graduate students in particle, theoretical and mathematical physics, explores advanced topics of quantum field theory. Clearly divided into two parts; the first focuses on instantons with a detailed exposition of instantons in quantum mechanics, supersymmetric qu
Quantum field theory has been with us for over 75 years, but it is only in the last 25 that physicists and mathematicians have jointly ventured out to explore its realms beyond the reach of perturbation theory, to the great benefit of both disciplines.<i>Conformal Field Theory</i>consists of pedagog
Providing a new perspective on quantum field theory, this book gives a pedagogical and up-to-date exposition of non-perturbative methods in relativistic quantum field theory and introduces the reader to modern research work in theoretical physics. It describes in detail non-perturbative methods in q
