Quantum Physics (eBook, PDF)

A Functional Integral Point of View

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Describes fifteen years' work which has led to the construc- tion of solutions to non-linear relativistic local field e- quations in 2 and 3 space-time dimensions. Gives proof of the existence theorem in 2 dimensions and describes many properties of the solutions.
