Lectures on String Theory (Lecture Notes in Physics, 346) 1989th Edition by Dieter Lüst (PDF)

Description

This book provides a self-contained introduction to string theory, at present one of the most exciting and fastest-growing areas in theoretical high-energy physics. Pedagogical in character, it introduces modern techniques and concepts, such as conformal and superconformal field theory, Kac-Moody algebras, etc., stressing their relevance and application to string theory rather than the formal aspects. The reader is led from a basic discussion of the classical bosonic string to the construction of four-dimensional heterotic string models, an area of current research. The so-called covariant lattice construction is discussed in detail. Being conceptually very simple, the book serves to exemplify the relevant features of other methods of arriving at four-dimensional string theories. It is also shown how one derives a low-energy field theory from string theory, thereby making contact with conventional point-particle physics.

User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐This is the best book for an introduction. It treated bosonic string and spinning strings very neatly and will help esp. if you are looking for a way into this field. At the beginning everything is hard, so such a book will help a lot. Witten’s book is also very clear but at a more complicated level.
