Basic Aspects of the Quantum Theory of Solids: Order and Elementary Excitations
Description
Aimed at graduate students and researchers, this book covers the key aspects of the modern quantum theory of solids, including up-to-date ideas such as quantum fluctuations and strong electron correlations. It presents in the main concepts of the modern quantum theory of solids, as well as a general description of the essential theoretical methods required when working with these systems. Diverse topics such as general theory of phase transitions, harmonic and anharmonic lattices, bose condensation and superfluidity, modern aspects of magnetism including resonating valence bonds, electrons ...
