- catalog abstract ""The book is considered a systematic presentation of the modern quantum field theory of non-linear sigma-models. The content is based on original papers. Geometric properties and perturbative renormalization of a generic non-linear sigma-model are considered in detail, and illustrated by explicit multi-loop calculations. Some non-perturbative results are derived for the conformally invariant non-linear sigma-models. Supersymmetric extensions are given for most constructions, with emphasis on their relation to complex geometry. The main part is devoted to applications of non-linear sigma-models in conformal field theory, gauge theory, string theory, and general relativity. The book addresses graduate students and researchers in physics and mathematics."--Jacket.".
