Title: Selected QG topics (3): dynamics in the general field theory framework
Abstract:
The third lecture on general field theory is devoted to the notion of dynamics. We will discuss both local and global properties of dynamics in physics, as well as differences between classical and quantum dynamics. Special attention will be devoted to the case of mechanics, and we will introduce the notion of the effective action in field theory.
