| Summary: | Now in paperback, this text provides a self-contained introduction to applications of loop representations and knot theory in particle physics and quantum gravity. Loop representations (and the related topic of knot theory) are of considerable current interest because they provide a unified arena for the study of the gauge invariant quantization of Yang-Mills theories and gravity, and suggest a promising approach to the eventual unification of the four fundamental forces. This text begins with a detailed review of loop representation theory. It then goes on to describe loop representations in Maxwell theory, Yang-Mills theories as well as lattice techniques. Applications in quantum gravity are then discussed in detail. Following chapters move on to consider knot theories, braid theories and extended loop representations in quantum gravity. A final chapter assesses the current status of the theory and points out possible directions for future research |

Loop representations (and the related topic of knot theory) are of considerable current interest because they provide a unified arena for the study of the gauge invariant quantization of Yang-Mills theories and gravity, and suggest a promising approach to the eventual unification of the four fundamental forces. This text begins with a detailed review of loop representation theory. It then goes on to describe loop representations in Maxwell theory, Yang-Mills theories as well as lattice techniques. Applications in quantum gravity are then discussed in detail. Following chapters move on to consider knot theories, braid theories and extended loop representations in quantum gravity. A final chapter assesses the current status of the theory and points out possible directions for future research Mathematik Quantum gravity / Mathematics Loops (Group theory) Knot theory Gauge fields (Physics) Quantum field theory Quantenfeldtheorie (DE-588)4047984-5 gnd rswk-swf Loop (DE-588)4168153-8 gnd rswk-swf Darstellungstheorie (DE-588)4148816-7 gnd rswk-swf Schleifenraum (DE-588)4179711-5 gnd rswk-swf Knotentheorie (DE-588)4164318-5 gnd rswk-swf Eichtheorie (DE-588)4122125-4 gnd rswk-swf Quantengravitation (DE-588)4124012-1 gnd rswk-swf Eichtheorie (DE-588)4122125-4 s Loop (DE-588)4168153-8 s Darstellungstheorie (DE-588)4148816-7 s 1\p DE-604 Quantengravitation (DE-588)4124012-1 s 2\p DE-604 Knotentheorie (DE-588)4164318-5 s Quantenfeldtheorie (DE-588)4047984-5 s 3\p DE-604 4\p DE-604 5\p DE-604 Schleifenraum (DE-588)4179711-5 s 6\p DE-604 Pullin, Jorge 1963- Sonstige (DE-588)17297822X oth Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe 978-0-521-47332-3 Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe 978-0-521-65475-3 Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe, Hardcover 0 521 47332 2 Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe, Paperback 0 521 65475 0 https://doi.org/10.1017/CBO9780511524431 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 3\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 4\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 5\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 6\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
