Course Name: Path Integral and functional methods in quantum field theory

Course abstract

Path integral method is an important formal development in quantum mechanics. The first half of the course should be useful for any student of quantum mechanics, providing deeper insights into the theory. The second half of the course discusses path integral method in its functional form applied to space-time fields and brings out connection of quantised fields to elementary particles.
