Description for Random Tensors
Hardcover. This book introduces "Random Tensors," a framework for studying random geometries in any dimension. It provides a complete derivation of the key results in the field. Whatever form a theory of Quantum Gravity may take, it must incorporate random geometry. Num Pages: 352 pages, 89. BIC Classification: PBW; PHQ; PHR; PHU. Category: (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 180 x 314 x 24. Weight in Grams: 820.
Written by the creator of the modern theory of random tensors, this book is the first self-contained introductory text to this rapidly developing theory. Starting from notions familiar to the average researcher or PhD student in mathematical or theoretical physics, the book presents in detail the theory and its applications to physics. The recent detections of the Higgs boson at the LHC and gravitational waves at LIGO mark new milestones in Physics confirming long standing predictions of Quantum Field Theory and General Relativity. These two experimental results only reinforce today the need to find an underlying common framework ... Read more
