Introductory Lectures on Quantum Field Theory
by Luis Alvarez-Gaume, Miguel A. Vazquez-Mozo
Publisher: arXiv 2013
Number of pages: 112
Description:
In these lectures we present a few topics in Quantum Field Theory in detail. Some of them are conceptual and some more practical. They have been selected because they appear frequently in current applications to Particle Physics and String Theory.

Algebraic Quantum Field Theoryby Hans Halvorson, Michael Mueger - arXiv
This paper is a survey of AQFT, with an orientation towards foundational topics. In addition to covering the basics of the theory, we discuss issues related to nonlocality, the particle concept, the field concept, and inequivalent representations.

Quantum Field Theoryby A.N. Schellekens
All particles in the standard model correspond to some field in a quantum field theory. Our task is to understand how this works, how to describe interactions of these particles using quantum field theory, and how to compute various processes.
