Public ISBD Titre : Introduction to superstrings and M-Theory Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Michio Kaku, Auteur Mention d'édition : 2 éd Editeur : Berlin ; London ; Cham : Springer Année de publication : 1999 Collection : Graduate texts in contemporary physics Importance : XVII-587 p. Présentation : ill. Format : 25 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-387-98589-3 Note générale : Index Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Superstring theories Supercordes (physique nucléaire) Index. décimale : 531.391 cables, cordes, surfaces flexibles Résumé : Called by some, "the theory of everything," superstring theory may lead to the unification of the two great theories of the 20th century, general relativity and quantum field theory. This text stresses various areas of interest, including: string field theory, multi loops, Teichmueller spaces, conformal field theory, and four-dimensional strings. the book begin with a simple discussion of point particle theory and uses feynman path integral s to unify the presentation of superstrings, it has been updated throughout, and three new chapters on M-theory have been added Note de contenu : - First Quantization and Path Integrals Path Integrals and Point Particles Nambu-Goto Strings Superstrings - Second Quantization and the Search for Geometry Light Cone Field Theory BRST Field Theory -Phenomenology and Model Building: Anomalies and the Atiyah-Singer Theorem Heterotic Strings and Compactification Calabi-Yau Spaces and Orbifolds - M-Theory: M-theory and Duality Compatifications and BPS States Solitons, D-Branes, and Black Holes Introduction to superstrings and M-Theory [texte imprimé] / Michio Kaku, Auteur  . -  2 éd . - Berlin ; London ; Cham : Springer, 1999 . - XVII-587 p. : ill. ; 25 cm. - (Graduate texts in contemporary physics) .
