Gauge theory and renormalization (Erice, August 1994)

High Energy Physics - Theory 2008-02-03 v2

Abstract

Early developments leading to renormalizable non-Abelian gauge theories for the weak, electromagnetic and strong interactions, are discussed from a personal viewpoint. They drastically improved our view of the role of field theory, symmetry and topology, as well as other branches of mathematics, in the world of elementary particles.
