Modern QFT (современная КТП)
https://itmp.msu.ru/en/mscgeom...
This is a continuation of the course “Principles of QFT”. It covers modern and more advanced aspects of the theory. Renormalization techniques will be introduced and applied to the study of important physical phenomena of Quantum Electrodynamics such as the electron self-energy, polarization of vacuum and the anomalous magnetic moment of electron. Path integral formulation of quantum field theory will be developed and applied to quantisation of the so-called non-abelian gauge theories by modern methods of Faddeev-Popov and the BRST-Symmetry. The basic features of the Standard Model of particle physics such as Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking and the Higgs mechanism also belong to the syllabus. The role of topological solutions in quantum field theory such as monopoles and instantons will also be discussed.
