Description for Equivariant Cohomology and Localization of Path Integrals
Paperback. Series: Lecture Notes in Physics Monographs (Closed). Num Pages: 326 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBKS; PBP; PBPD; PHP; PHQ; PHU. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 18. Weight in Grams: 504.
This book, addressing both researchers and graduate students, reviews equivariant localization techniques for the evaluation of Feynman path integrals. The author gives the relevant mathematical background in some detail, showing at the same time how localization ideas are related to classical integrability. The text explores the symmetries inherent in localizable models for assessing the applicability of localization formulae. Various applications from physics and mathematics are presented.

Reviews for Equivariant Cohomology and Localization of Path Integrals
"A thorough exposition of the current state of applying equivariant cohomology to quantum field theory. [...] If one takes the attitude that this material may make mathematical sense within the next fifty years, the book can be appreciated as a well-organized exposition of the topological content of quantum field theory from a physics viewpoint." (Mathematical Reviews 2002a)
