	Unified field theory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In physics, unified field theory is an attempt to unify all the fundamental forces and the interactions between elementary particles into a single theoretical framework.
		This unified theory was governed by the exchange of four particles: the photon for electromagnetic interactions, and a neutral Z particle and two charged W particles for weak interaction.
		The unified field theory must be consistent, explain all previously known aspects of gravity on a large scale, and of quantum mechanics on the subatomic level, in a single framework while making new and falsifiable predictions.

	Quantum field theory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Relativistic quantum field theories are indispensable in particle physics (see the standard model), although they are known to arise as effective field theories in condensed matter physics.
		Classical field theory is the same as classical mechanics of an infinite number of dynamical quantities (say, tiny elements of rubber on a rubber sheet).
		The particle associated with excitations of the gauge field is the gauge boson, which is the photon in the case of quantum electrodynamics.

	Super G-String Field Theory (figures to appear)
		Since string field theory is becoming more and more a part of everyday life (so far, no disagreement has been found with experiment [2]), we here apply this formalism to the most important string, the super G [2]-string [3].
		Field theory formulations can be straightforwardly derived by the use of BRST [13] methods.
		The geometry of the field theory described by Fig.

	Quantum Field Theory
		The field φ and its conjugate field π are the direct analogues of the canonical coordinate q and the generalized (canonical or conjugate) momentum p in classical mechanics of point particles.
		First, quantum fields which one expects to be somehow physically concrete like classical fields are on the side of observables although, as far as the development of theories is concerned, they are the successors of states (in their position representation, namely wave functions), e.g., in the Klein-Gordon equation of relativistic QM as described above.
		The transition from a classical field theory (like electromagnetism) to quantum field theory can be characterized by the transition from the field φ(x,t) to the quantum field φ̂(x,t), and a corresponding transition for its conjugate field for both of which a certain specification of canonical commutation relations holds.

	unified field theory - a definition from Whatis.com (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Unified field theory is sometimes called the Theory of Everything (TOE, for short): the long-sought means of tying together all known phenomena to explain the nature and behavior of all matter and energy in existence.
		The theory of relativity explains the nature and behavior of all phenomena on the macroscopic level (things that are visible to the naked eye); quantum theory explains the nature and behavior of all phenomena on the microscopic (atomic and subatomic) level.
		The current quest for a unified field theory (sometimes called the holy grail of physicists) is largely focused on superstring theory and, in particular, on an adaptation known as M-theory.

	Field Theory - Kurt Lewin
		Later on, yoda in Star Wars brought field theory back into vogue, with his kind wish for Luke Skywalker, "may the force [field] be with you." But likewise, Luke had to influence the force.
		In his field theory, a ‘field’ is defined as ‘the totality of coexisting facts which are conceived of as mutually interdependent’ (Lewin 1951: 240).
		The field theory is the "proposition that human behavior is the function of both the person and the environment: expressed in symbolic terms, B = f (P, E)." (Deaux 9) This means that one’s behavior is related both to one’s personal characteristics and to the social situation in which one finds oneself.

	Relativity and Quantum Theory
		However, this theory is inherently a many-body theory with the quanta of the normal modes of the classical field having all the properties of physical particles.
		The most successful numerical approach to quantum field theory begins with a formulation of quantum mechanics developed by Feynman in which a quantum amplitude is described as a weighted integral over all possible paths (not necessarily obeying the classical equations) which start at the system's initial state and end at the final state.
		The field theory analogue of the single-particle action given in the equation above is a similar polynomial in the field variables and their derivatives, integrated over space-time.

	IPAM Conformal Field Theory Program
		Methods of quantum field theory may be applied to problems of topological invariants of knots and instanton moduli spaces as well and have led to a wealth of new results in pure mathematics.
		Their purely algebraic formulation elevates two-dimensional conformal field theories to some of the rare examples where quantum field theories may be defined and constructed in a mathematically rigorous fashion.
		The perturbative expansion of string theory in powers of the coupling constant may be formulated in terms of conformal field theories on families of two-dimensional compact Riemann surfaces, whose genus is the order of the expansion.

	12: Field theory and polynomials
		Here a local field is the quotient field of a ring with a unique maximal ideal (such as a power series ring); thus for example the field of Laurent series R((x)) is a local field, as is a p-adic field Q_p.
		Fields of functions of algebraic varieties (essentially the quotient fields of rings F[x1,...,xn]/(P) where P is a multivariable polynomial) are more properly treated in 14: Algebraic Geometry, although these are really just discussions of fields of finite transcendence degree over the ground field.
		Likewise fields of meromorphic functions and local rings of germs of functions are usually treated with their applications to 30: Complex Analysis, 32: Several complex variables, and 58: Analysis on manifolds.

	Gravity Theory -- Introducing Energy-Density Component
		This new gravitational theory not only explains how gravity works, but shows how errors can arise in determining the positions of space probes, in determining the mass of the earth and other planets and in determining the value of G, the universal gravitational constant.
		This new theory of gravity is part of a more general Unified Field Theory (UFT) that shows how all of the known force fields work together.
		Given the new theory, the attraction is a function of the energy-density, which, of course, includes the mass.

	NOVA \| The Elegant Universe \| A Theory of Everything? \| PBS
		String theory proclaims, for instance, that the observed particle properties—that is, the different masses and other properties of both the fundamental particles and the force particles associated with the four forces of nature (the strong and weak nuclear forces, electromagnetism, and gravity)—are a reflection of the various ways in which a string can vibrate.
		These grandiose descriptive terms are meant to signify the deepest possible theory of physics—a theory that underlies all others, one that does not require or even allow for a deeper explanatory base.
		To whatever extent they and their world can be reduced to a matter of particles or fields and their interactions, they feel diminished by that knowledge....I would not try to answer these critics with a pep talk about the beauties of modern science.

		It is referred to as a concept rather than a theory since it is a collection of thoughts on the subject as opposed to a complete dissertation.
		Instead, many special theories were developed, each relating to a relatively narrow field of scientific research.
