We initiate a study of the complexity of quantum field theories (QFTs) by proposing a measure of information contained in a QFT and its observables. We show that from minimal assertions, one is naturally led to measure complexity by two…

Today's quantum field theory (QFT) relies heavenly on canonical quantization (CQ), which fails for $\varphi^4_4$ leading only to a "free" result. Affine quantization (AQ), an alternative quantization procedure, leads to a "non-free" result…
