Covariant Loop Quantum Gravity - Francesca Vidotto - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

Covariant Loop Quantum Gravity - Francesca Vidotto - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

Quantum gravity is among the most fascinating problems in physics. It modifies our understanding of time, space and matter. The recent development of the loop approach has allowed us to explore domains ranging from black hole thermodynamics to the early Universe. This book provides readers with a simple introduction to loop quantum gravity, centred on its covariant approach. It focuses on the physical and conceptual aspects of the problem and includes the background material needed to enter this lively domain of research, making it ideal for researchers and graduate students. Topics covered include quanta of space; classical and quantum physics without time; tetrad formalism; Holst action; lattice QCD; Regge calculus; ADM and Ashtekar variables; Ponzano-Regge and Turaev-Viro amplitudes; kinematics and dynamics of 4D Lorentzian quantum gravity; spectrum of area and volume; coherent states; classical limit; matter couplings; graviton propagator; spinfoam cosmology and black hole thermodynamics.

Langlands Correspondence for Loop Groups - Edward Frenkel - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

Langlands Correspondence for Loop Groups - Edward Frenkel - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

The Langlands Program was conceived initially as a bridge between Number Theory and Automorphic Representations, and has now expanded into such areas as Geometry and Quantum Field Theory, tying together seemingly unrelated disciplines into a web of tantalizing conjectures. A new chapter to this grand project is provided in this book. It develops the geometric Langlands Correspondence for Loop Groups, a new approach, from a unique perspective offered by affine Kac-Moody algebras. The theory offers fresh insights into the world of Langlands dualities, with many applications to Representation Theory of Infinite-dimensional Algebras, and Quantum Field Theory. This accessible text builds the theory from scratch, with all necessary concepts defined and the essential results proved along the way. Based on courses taught at Berkeley, the book provides many open problems which could form the basis for future research, and is accessible to advanced undergraduate students and beginning graduate students.

Crossing the Aisle - Antoine Yoshinaka - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

Crossing the Aisle - Antoine Yoshinaka - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

Switching parties is arguably the most important decision a politician will ever make. This book is the first-ever systematic study of the causes and consequences of legislative party switching in the United States. The author argues that re-election alone does not explain party switching. He proposes an ambition-based theory that accounts for multiple goals (including higher office aspirations and the desire for influence in the legislature) with a focus on the electoral costs and the institutional benefits of the decision. The book combines the statistical analysis of electoral data and legislative careers in the US Congress and state legislatures with elite interviews of party switchers, non-switchers, and a party leader. The case study of a party switcher''s decision in ''real time'' documents the complexity of the decision in a politician''s own words prior to and following the switch. The book raises important questions regarding the meaning of a party label.

Introduction to Statistical Field Theory - Edouard Brezin - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

Introduction to Statistical Field Theory - Edouard Brezin - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

Knowledge of the renormalization group and field theory is a key part of physics, and is essential in condensed matter and particle physics. Written for advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate students, this textbook provides a concise introduction to this subject. The textbook deals directly with the loop expansion of the free energy, also known as the background field method. This is a powerful method, especially when dealing with symmetries, and statistical mechanics. In focussing on free energy, the author avoids long developments on field theory techniques. The necessity of renormalization then follows.

Quantum Fields in Curved Space - N. D. Birrell - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

Quantum Fields in Curved Space - N. D. Birrell - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

This book presents a comprehensive review of the subject of gravitational effects in quantum field theory. Although the treatment is general, special emphasis is given to the Hawking black hole evaporation effect, and to particle creation processes in the early universe. The last decade has witnessed a phenomenal growth in this subject. This is the first attempt to collect and unify the vast literature that has contributed to this rapid development. All the major technical results are presented, and the theory is developed carefully from first principles. Here is everything that students or researchers will need to embark upon calculations involving quantum effects of gravity at the so-called one-loop approximation level.

Nature of Prominences and their Role in Space Weather (IAU S300) - - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

Nature of Prominences and their Role in Space Weather (IAU S300) - - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

Solar prominences and filaments are large gaseous features extending outward hundreds of thousands of kilometres from the Sun''s surface, which play an active role in space weather. Magnetic clouds and interplanetary coronal mass ejections associated with erupting prominences can produce severe perturbations in the Earth''s near-space environment. IAU Symposium 300 presents a review of the state-of-the-art theoretical and numerical modelling of prominences and filaments, and their role in the dynamics of Sun-Earth relations. Observations from the latest international space-borne missions (Hinode, STEREO and SDO) and ground-based observatories are presented. The Symposium benefits not just newcomers to solar physics research but it shares the current status of our sophisticated solar analysis with the stellar community, now that huge prominences and CMEs have been detected in solar-type stars, and others, which will affect any exoplanets they host.
