Is there any overlap between the geometric and analysis oriented approaches to mathematical ...
The impression I have is that the mathematical approach to quantum field theory can broadly be categorized into one that is more geometrical/topological, for example in gauge theories, and another tha …

Wick ordering, probability vs physics
Consider a collection of creation $a^\dagger$and annihilation operators $a$. In physics one defines Wick ordering (also known as normal ordering) as a prescription to place all creation operators befo …

Approach to learning constructive QFT
First I would like to apologize if this post breaks any rule regarding career advice or opinion-based questions. Given that construct QFT (CQFT) is a rather small community, I found this is the only s …

Are renormalizability and the criticality of a PDE synonymous?
In the physics literature a quantum field theory is qualitatively classified as renormalizable, super-renormalizable, or non-renormalizable. This heuristic is based on how many Feynman diagrams conve …

Reference request: an introduction to nuclear spaces
I am looking for a short introduction to nuclear spaces and nuclear operators. I am interested in these spaces as they often arise in mathematically rigorous quantum field theories. I have read the Wi …

Identification of Fock space and the $L^2$ space of tempered distributions
Let $\mathcal{S}'(\mathbb{R}^d)$ be the set of tempered distributions over $\mathbb{R}^d$ and $d\phi_C$ a Gaussian measure over $\mathcal{S}'(\mathbb{R}^d)$ with covariance operator $C$. Consider the …

Representations of the commutation relations and renormalization
I had a hard time deciding whether this question is more appropriate for physicsSE or MO, so I have cross-listed it for the time being. The physicsSE post can be found here.
In the lecture Is relativi …
