Quantum Theory in Curved Spacetime 1102-4`QTCS
The list of topics includes:
1. Particle creations in expanding universe, Bogoliubov transformations
2. Formulation of the QFT on the curved background, propagators, quasifree states
3. Non uniqueness of vacua, Hadamard condition, wave front sets,
4. Renormalization of the stress energy tensor, anomaly, quantum energy inequalities
5. Unruh (thermal behavior of the vacuum in the exterior of a black hole and in the Rindler wedge)
6. Hawking radiation
Time permitting:
7. Quantum field theory in de Sitter,
8. Interacting QFT in curved spacetime (Epstein-Glaser renormalization, classification of counterterms for the phi^4 theory)
