PHYS-EV0001 - Quantum field theory in condensed matter physics, Lecture, 9.1.2023-6.4.2023

Osion kuvaus

• Literature
  • Basic quantum mechanics books:

    Griffiths, introduction to quantum mechanics -- probably familiar to all, simple and nice

    Ballentine, quantum mechanics -- very thorough

    
    

    Quantum field theory books:

    Nozieres, theory of interacting Fermi systems -- very old but very good

    Mattuck, a guide to Feynman diagrams in the many-body problem -- very pedagogic and pleasant to read

    Fetter & Walecka, quantum theory of many-particle systems -- very thorough but tough

    Mahan, many-particle physics -- very thorough, but probably more approachable than F&W
    

    Bruus & Flensberg, many-body quantum theory in condensed matter physics -- our official course book

    When Grigory heard about our course, he sent me his book in pdf for us to use. Very interesting and pleasant to read! The actual book can probably be found from library as well.
