The book is devoted to the study of the correlation effects in many-particle systems. It presents the advanced methods of …
There is no doubt that we have, during the last decade, moved into a "golden age" of condensed matter science. …
Recently, analogies between laboratory physics (e.g. quantum optics and condensed matter) and gravitational/cosmological phenomena such as black holes have attracted …
The primary focus of this thesis is to theoretically describe nanokelvin experiments in cold atomic gases, which offer the potential …
Quantum phase transitions (QPTs) offer wonderful examples of the radical macroscopic effects inherent in quantum physics: phase changes between different …
The transverse field Ising and XY models (the simplest quantum spin models) provide the organising principle for the rich variety …
A Primer to the Theory of Critical Phenomena
In each generation, scientists must redefine their fields: abstracting, simplifying and distilling the previous standard topics to make room for …
The book is an introduction to quantum field theory and renormalization group. It shows that these frameworks are essential for …
Over the last twenty years quantum field theory has become not only the framework for the discussion of all fundamental …
