Unifying a range of topics currently scattered throughout the literature, this book offers a unique review of mathematical aspects of quantization and quantum field theory. The authors present both basic and more advanced topics in a mathematically consistent way, focusing on canonical commutation and anti-commutation relations. They begin with a discussion of the mathematical structures underlying free bosonic or fermionic fields, such as tensors, algebras, Fock spaces, and CCR and CAR representations. Applications of these topics to physical problems are discussed in later chapters.
