Quantum theory of field is a base subject in elementary particle physics and condensing mediums and takes one of the leading places in academic programs of physics faculties in universities. The proposed monograph outlines the gauge fields theory basics, which are the core of modern quantum field theory. The presentation is based on the functional integration method application and introduces the quantization of free fields in the operator approach. The material of the monograph corresponds to a three-semester university course of lectures, and it includes the Standard Model of modern elementary particle physics and several areas of its expansion as well.
The book is for senior students, bachelors, masters, and post-graduate students of physical and mathematical specialties, as well as scientists who wish to familiarize themselves with the methods of the modern theory of gauge fields.
