137 A Group Theoretical Approach to Quantum Optics: Models of Atom Field Interactions. Its central themes – which include space–time geometry and the general relativistic account of gravity, quantum field theory and the gauge theories of fundamental forces – are developed in explicit mathematical detail, with an emphasis on conceptual understanding. This is not to say that there weren't hiccups. Folland, Quantum field theory: A tourist guide for mathematicians, Math. The canonical history is a marriage of mathematics and logic coupled with empirical observation. Quantum field theory: a tourist guide for mathematicians. Differentiable manifolds : a theoretical physics approach. There are essentially two alternative approaches for formalizing quantum field theory and making it accessible to mathematical treatment: Gerald B. The story stretches through the Arab translations of works like Euclid's Elements during the Dark and Middle Ages, through the emergence of the scientific revolution, and culminating in the dizzying heights of modern works like quantum field theory. Relativity and quantum field theory. A Unified Grand Tour of Theoretical Physics invites readers on a guided exploration of the theoretical ideas that shape contemporary understanding of the physical world at the fundamental level. A good mathematical grounding is very useful at degree level (or so I've been told), especially with more abstract concepts (modern physics, anyone?).

The best available theory is based on a marriage between quantum mechanics and special relativity — quantum field theories (QFT).
