Summary

Topological quantum field theories lie at the intersection of algebra, topology, and quantum field theory. The area is highly active, driven by recent developments in representation theory and topology, as well as developments in theoretical physics, including the study of topological phases of matter and topological symmetries. This book provides an accessible introduction to topological quantum field theories, along with basic notions of category theory - the natural mathematical setting fo…
