Opis

Landau Fermi Liquid Theory is the basis of our current understanding of the physical properties of electronic systems. It relies on a deep and far-reaching principle of adiabatic continuity. The success of the theory depends crucially on density and dimensionality of the systems. Recent development in semiconductors and ultra-cold atom physics let physicists realize that there are more interesting theories than dull Landau Fermi liquid theory, most of which lie at the heart of strongly correlated systems, either bosons or fermions. This book is an effort to explain strongly correlated phenomena in bilayer quantum Hall systems, unconventional superconductivity and the boson Hubbard model. This book is intended for researchers in condensed matter field, but is also useful to someone who wants to know the recent development of the exciting field.
