Canonical quantization of abelian BF-type topological field theory coupled to extended sources on generic d-dimensional manifolds and with curved line bundles is studied. Sheaf cohomology is used to construct the appropriate topological extension of the action and the topological flux quantization c
This work reveals the close connection between the random fractal topology of space-time in microphysics and the renormalization group program (RG) of quantum field theory. As known, the primary goal of RG is to consistently remove divergences from quantum computations by factoring in the energy sca
Quantum field theory is frequently approached from the perspective of particle physics. This book adopts a more general point of view and includes applications of condensed matter physics. Written by a highly respected writer and researcher, it first develops traditional concepts, including Feynman
