Description

This book aims to fill the gap in the available literature on supermanifolds, describing the different approaches to supermanifolds together with various applications to physics, including some which rely on the more mathematical aspects of supermanifold theory.The first part of the book contains a full introduction to the theory of supermanifolds, comparing and contrasting the different approaches that exist. Topics covered include tensors on supermanifolds, super fibre bundles, super Lie groups and integration theory.Later chapters emphasise applications, including the superspace approach to supersymmetric theories, super Riemann surfaces and the spinning string, path integration on supermanifolds and BRST quantization.

User’s Reviews

Editorial Reviews: Review A book written in a relaxed and friendly manner, that moreover, tries to appeal to both, physicists and mathematicians, by using their specific parlance at various parts. As already said, a concise, but at the same time reasonably complete, exposition of the basics of supermanifold theory. A concise but up-to-date account of some of the main applications — both to physics and mathematics — of supermanifold theory … A quite extensive bibliography. — Mathematical ReviewsA book written in a relaxed and friendly manner, that moreover, tries to appeal to both, physicists and mathematicians, by using their specific parlance at various parts.
