QFT-Bench is a benchmark designed to evaluate the reasoning capabilities of large language models (LLMs) in quantum field theory (QFT), a fundamental theoretical framework underlying modern particle physics.

The benchmark consists of 75 problems covering eight QFT core areas:

- Classical Field Theory (Classical) 
- Quantization of Scalar, Spinor, and Vector Fields (Quantization) 
- Quantum Electrodynamics (QED) 
- Regularization and Renormalization (Renormalization) 
- Non-Abelian Gauge Theory and QCD (Non-Abelian) 
- Electroweak Theory and the Higgs Mechanism (Electroweak) 
- Supersymmetric Field Theories (SUSY) 
- Conformal Field Theories (CFT) 

## Dataset Structure

The dataset is provided in `test.json`. Each problem contains the following fields:

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `num` | Problem number |
| `question` | Problem statement |
| `category` | QFT topic category |
| `reference_answer` | Reference final answer |
| `reference_solution` | Reference derivation and solution |
| `numeric_tolerance`, `reference_answer_alt`, `specific_requirement` | Additional evaluation instructions when applicable |

Mathematical expressions are represented using LaTeX.

## Load the dataset

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

dataset = load_dataset("LLMsHEP/QFT-Bench", split="test")

print(f"Number of problems: {len(dataset)}")
print(dataset[0]["question"])
```
