 Aims
(1) To provide the basic language used to describe quantum systems with an infinite numbers of degrees of freedom.
(2) To study in detail quantum electrodynamics, the prototype of a quantum field theory, including renormalization.
Main themes
The contents vary from one year to another, depending on the teacher who gives the course. The main themes are the following:
- Classical electromagnetism
- Canonical quantization and covariant quantization
- QED symmetry
- Mass and charge renormalization
- Feynman rules in QED and applications
