Zuber works in theoretical and mathematical physics, including quantum field theory, statistical physics, conformal field theory, and related symmetry methods.[1]

He is best known to many field-theory students as coauthor with Claude Itzykson of the two-volume textbook Quantum Field Theory.[2][1]

Zuber also wrote about Itzykson's scientific life after Itzykson's death, reflecting their close scholarly connection in French theoretical physics.[3]

Selected works
