Quantum Field Theory and Functional Integrals
by Nima Moshayedi
Publisher: arXiv.org 2019
Number of pages: 88
Description:
These notes describe Feynman's path integral approach to quantum mechanics and quantum field theory from a functional integral point of view, where the main focus lies in Euclidean field theory. The notion of Gaussian measure and the construction of the Wiener measure are covered.

Group Field Theoriesby Thomas Krajewski - arXiv
Group field theories are particular quantum field theories defined on D copies of a group which reproduce spin foam amplitudes on a space-time of dimension D. In these lecture notes, we present the general construction of group field theories.

Introduction to Nonequilibrium Quantum Field Theoryby J. Berges - arXiv
An introduction to functional integral techniques and how they can be applied in practice. Though we focus on particle physics and cosmology applications, we emphasize that these techniques can be equally applied to other nonequilibrium phenomena.
