Notes of my 14 `lectures on everything' given at the 1995 Les Houches school. An introductory course in topological and conformal field theory, strings, gauge fields, supersymmetry and more. The presentation is more mathematical then usual…
These lectures review the formalism of renormalization in quantum field theories with special regard to effective quantum field theories. While renormalization theory is part of every advanced course on quantum field theory, for effective…

These notes are based on lectures presented at the 2001 Les Houches Summerschool ``Unity from Duality: Gravity, Gauge Theory and Strings''
These notes overlap with lectures given at the TASI summer schools in 2014 and 2011, as well as at the European School of High Energy Physics in 2013. This is primarily an attempt at transcribing my hand-written notes, with emphasis on…
These lecture notes in geometric mechanics are meant to convey insight through clear definitions and workable examples. The lecture format adopted here is intended to convey the immediacy of the taught course and to be useful as a basis for…
Over the past decades, a great body of theoretical and mathematical work has been devoted to random-matrix descriptions of open quantum systems. In these notes, based on lectures delivered at the Les Houches Summer School "Stochastic…
This is a series of lecture notes explaining topos theory and its application in physics.
These lecture notes provide an introduction to Langevin processes and briefly discuss some interesting properties and simple applications. They compile material presented at the "School of Physics and Mathematics Without Frontiers"…
