Room P4.35, Mathematics Building

QFT I
This series of lectures will be a gentle introduction to quantum
field theory for mathematicians. In our first lecture, we give a
lightning introduction to quantum mechanics and discuss the
simplest quantum system: the harmonic oscillator. We then sketch
how this system is used to quantize the free scalar field.
Note: room 4.35 is on the 4th floor at the end of the main corridor
