Discrete gauge theory: from lattices to TQFT Robert Oeckl. djvu ebook Publisher: Imperial College Press Language: English Page: 212 ISBN: 1860945791, 9781860945793

This book provides an introduction to topological quantum field theory as well as discrete gauge theory with quantum groups. In contrast to much of the existing literature, the present approach is at the same time intuitive and mathematically rigorous, making extensive use of suitable diagrammatic methods. It provides a highly unified description of lattice gauge theory, topological quantum field theory and models of quantum (super)gravity. The reader is thus in a unique position to understand the relations between these subjects as well as the underlying groundwork.
