Springer Berlin (Verlag)
978-3-540-67126-8 (ISBN)
Equivariant Cohomology and the Localization Principle.- Finite-Dimensional Localization Theory for Dynamical Systems.- Quantum Localization Theory for Phase Space Path Integrals.- Equivariant Localization on Simply Connected Phase Spaces: Applications to Quantum Mechanics, Group Theory and Spin Systems.- Equivariant Localization on Multiply Connected Phase Spaces: Applications to Homology and Modular Representations.- Beyond the Semi-Classical Approximation.- Equivariant Localization in Cohomological Field Theory.- Appendix A: BRST Quantization.- Appendix B: Other Models of Equivariant Cohomology.
"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)
