Quantum field theory

The University of Nottingham has made available this set of 14 lecture notes on quantum field theory as part of their open courseware initiative (U-NOW). The notes are aimed at third and fourth level undergraduates or postgraduates. Topics covered include second quantisation, free quantum fields, the Lehmann-Symanzik-Zimmermann (LSZ) reduction formula, free theory generating functionals, interacting theory, Feynman diagrams, momentum spaces, divergences, renormalisation and the on-shell renormalisation procedure, dimensional regularisation, coupling constants and asymptotic freedom. The notes were written by Dr Kirill Krasnov of the School of Mathematical Sciences and are licensed under a Creative Commons England and Wales Public License. They are available as PDF files and can be viewed online or downloaded
