Quantum Field Theory (QFT)
in Information Technology
Field Theoretic View of the
World in Engineering
Árpád I. Csurgay,
Professor Emeritus
The
remarkable success of quantum field theory (QFT)
in elementary particle physics and cosmology continued
with unexpected, simple and beautiful discoveries in condensed matter physics.
Till the end of the last century QFT
did not have significant impact on
theory of engineering. However, recently
QFT which provides
our best working
description of the Laws of Nature, serves as a fruitful tool for
investigating the behavior of all kinds of complex systems (e.g. Topological
computers, Big data, etc.).
This course presents a tutorial
introduction to QFT, and illustrates QFT’s applications in information
technologies, with special emphasis on quantum technologies.
1.
Classical and Quantum Fields. Fields as primary
reality of Nature.
2.
Creation and annihilation of particles (photons,
electrons, positrons, etc.)
3.
Indistinguishability of particles,
bosons and fermions, symmetries and statistics
4.
Forces (or more generally interactions) associated with exhange
of particles
5.
Lorentz–invariant (relativistic) quantum field theory
6.
Field Theory and Condensed Matter Physics
7.
Topological Field Theory – Anyon Statistics
8.
