Sharif graduate students register through the university and join the platform with the course code announced in class. If you are enrolled but cannot log in, contact us.

Yes. The syllabus is public, and after each problem set's due date its statements and reference solutions are published openly on this site.

Part I follows Zamolodchikov's lecture notes (§5–19) and Part II follows Peskin. Familiarity with quantum mechanics and Lagrangian mechanics at the graduate entry level is assumed.

Problem sets are submitted on the platform as LaTeX source (from Overleaf or locally) with the PDF attached. The LaTeX source is the canonical input for feedback.

The assistant helps with study questions in hint modes you control — from a gentle nudge to a full solution — and drafts feedback on submissions. It operates under a kill switch and a cost cap, and your work is only processed if you consent.

No. The AI drafts assessments against the rubric, but a human — the professor or an authorized TA — confirms and releases every grade. You can always see which rubric items were AI-assessed.

A midterm project from Part I and a final project from Part II, each delivered as a GitHub repository with an oral defense. The midterm is worth 4 points (2 repository + 2 oral), the final 6 (3 + 3).

Statements and reference solutions open to everyone after the hard due date of each problem set. Enrolled students keep access to everything, including downloadable files.
