Description for First Course in Topos Quantum Theory
Paperback.
In the last five decades various attempts to formulate theories of quantum gravity have been made, but none has fully succeeded in becoming the quantum theory of gravity. One possible explanation for this failure might be the unresolved fundamental issues in quantum theory as it stands now. Indeed, most approaches to quantum gravity adopt standard quantum theory as their starting point, with the hope that the theory’s unresolved issues will get solved along the way. However, these fundamental issues may need to be solved before attempting to define a quantum theory of gravity.

Reviews for First Course in Topos Quantum Theory
From the reviews: “This text presents a reformulation of quantum theory in terms of modern mathematical framework called topos theory. … This is one of the first text to address all of these aspects of topos quantum theory at the graduate student level.” (S. Moskaliuk, zbMATH, Vol. 1280, 2014) “The book is self-contained and can be used as ... Read more
