Thermal quantum field theory and perturbative non-equilibrium dynamics
In this thesis, we develop a perturbative formulation of non-equilibrium thermal quantum field theory, capable of describing the evolution of both temporal and spatial inhomogeneities in relativistic, quantum-statistical ensembles. We begin with a review of the necessary prerequisites from classical...
