Introduction to quantum fields on a lattice : : 'a robust mate' / / Jan Smit.
This book provides a concise introduction to quantum fields on a lattice: a precise and non-perturbative definition of quantum field theory obtained by replacing continuous space-time by a discrete set of points on a lattice. The path integral on the lattice is explained in concrete examples using w...

Smit, Jan, 1943- author. Introduction to quantum fields on a lattice : 'a robust mate' / Jan Smit. 1st ed. Cambridge : Cambridge University Press, 2023. 1 online resource (xii, 271 pages) : illustrations (black and white), digital, PDF file(s). text txt rdacontent still image sti rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Cambridge lecture notes in physics ; 15 Specialized. Open access. Unrestricted online access star Also issued in print: 2023. Includes bibliographical references and index. This book provides a concise introduction to quantum fields on a lattice: a precise and non-perturbative definition of quantum field theory obtained by replacing continuous space-time by a discrete set of points on a lattice. The path integral on the lattice is explained in concrete examples using weak and strong coupling expansions. Fundamental concepts such as 'triviality' of Higgs fields and confinement of quarks and gluons into hadrons are described and illustrated with the results of numerical simulations. The book also provides an introduction to chiral symmetry and chiral gauge theory, as well as quantized non-Abelian gauge fields, scaling and universality. Based on the lecture notes of a course given by the author, this book contains many explanatory examples and exercises, and is suitable as a textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses. Originally published in 2002, this title has been reissued as an Open Access publication on Cambridge Core. Description based on online resource; title from PDF title page (viewed on July 25, 2023).
