read the original abstract

The first free comprehensive textbook on quantum (and classical) field theory. The approach is pragmatic, rather than traditional or artistic: It includes practical techniques, such as the 1/N expansion (color ordering) and spacecone (spinor helicity), and diverse topics, such as supersymmetry and general relativity, as well as introductions to supergravity and strings. The PDF version can be more convenient than paper books, with Web links and a clickable outline (contents) window.

  1. Light-Front approach to $4d$ massless Higher-Spin interactions

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.5 of 10

    Solving Poincaré-algebra closure at quartic order yields infinitely many local 4d massless higher-spin theories (finite or infinite spectra), classifies chiral one-/two-derivative models, and determines all local unit...

  2. Massless spinning fields on the Light-Front: quartic vertices and amplitudes

    hep-th 2026-02 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A light-front quartic-constraint analysis classifies local massless higher-spin vertices and amplitudes, yielding no-go results for unitary theories and new quasi-chiral higher-spin sectors.

  3. Loops Outside a Black Hole

    hep-th 2025-09 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Conjecture reducing bulk loop discontinuity integrals in black hole Schwinger-Keldysh geometry to exterior real-time finite-temperature loop integrals, checked at one to three loops for low-point functions.

  4. Mega-Space Current Algebra and Green-Schwarz Geometry in Heterotic String Theory

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A Poláček-Siegel mega-space current algebra with Lorentz and heterotic gauge sectors embeds Chern-Simons structures and yields a Green-Schwarz-like Bianchi identity from Jacobi identities, without the α′ tr(R∧R) term.
