List of quantum field theories

Summary

This is a list of quantum field theories. The first few sections are organized according to their matter content, that is, the types of fields appearing in the theory. This is just one of many ways to organize quantum field theories, but reflects the way the subject is taught pedagogically.

Scalar field theory edit

Theories whose matter content consists of only scalar fields

Spinor field theory edit

Theories whose matter content consists only of spinor fields

Gauge field theory edit

Theories whose matter content consists only of gauge fields

Interacting theories edit

Sigma models edit

Supersymmetric quantum field theories edit

Superconformal quantum field theories edit

String theories edit

Theories studied in the branch of quantum field theory known as string theory. These theories are without supersymmetry.
