Abstract

THEORETICAL high-energy physics throws up, every few years, newer and more complex formulations which we hapless soldiers in the field have to contend with and absorb. In the last five years, beginning with the reincarnation of String theory, life on this treadmill has become even more frantic, with an explosion of new theoretical structures and concepts. One such very recent concept is that of a Topological Field Theory (TFT).
