Reading Seminar
A Mathematical Introduction to Modern Physics
Summer Semester 2018
News
- The next (and last) meeting is on Tuesday, July 17.
Time and Place
Tuesday, 14 -- 16, Seminar Room 6, Building E2 4Content
We will read and discuss the first six chapters of the book Glimm and Jaffe: Quantum Physics (A functional integral point of view), which have the following titles:
As the physics and mathematics covered in those chapters is quite tense, this will not be an easy reading. Background on physics and stochastics are helpful, whereas functional analysis knowledge on the level of our “Funktionalanalysis” classes is indispensable. This will be a reading seminar, meaning: each week we cover half a chapter. Each participant will read this in advance and be prepared to present pieces of it and take part in the discussion. We will not be able to cover everything in detail, but we have to make choices where to talk about the general ideas and where to check the details. |
