Project description
A consistent mathematical foundation for quantum theories
Quantum theory is one of the pillars of modern science. Its success extends from elementary quantum mechanical models to advanced quantum field theories, such as the Standard Model of particle physics, which is the quantisation of a gauge theory. A precise and universal mathematical formulation of the quantisation procedure is still lacking. The overarching goal of the EU-funded ReNewQuantum project is to construct a completely new mathematical approach to quantisation that can be applied to quantum field theory and string theory. The new approach should provide a global, explicit and recursive description of the series of quantum corrections as well as access to exact quantum regimes beyond the perturbation theory.
