The One-Dimensional Hubbard Model
ISBN: 9780521802628 / Angielski / Twarda / 692 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book presents a self-contained account of the exact solution of the Hubbard model in one dimension. The description of solids at a microscopic level is complex, involving the interaction of a huge number of its constituents. It is impossible to solve the corresponding many-body problems, although insight can be gained from analysis of simplified models. An important example is the Hubbard model, which describes interacting electrons in narrow energy bands and which has been applied to a diverse range of problems.

More Is Different: Fifty Years of Condensed Matter Physics
ISBN: 9780691088662 / Angielski / Miękka / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book presents articles written by leading experts surveying several major subfields in Condensed Matter Physics and related sciences. The articles are based on invited talks presented at a recent conference honoring Nobel laureate Philip W. Anderson of Princeton University, who coined the phrase "More is different" while formulating his contention that all fields of physics, indeed all of science, involve equally fundamental insights. The articles introduce and survey current research in areas that have been close to Anderson's interests. Together, they illustrate both the deep impact...

Elementary Excitations In Solids
ISBN: 9780738201153 / Angielski / Miękka / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This text continues to fill the need to communicate the present view of a solid as a system of interacting particles which, under suitable circumstances, behaves like a collection of nearly independent elementary excitations. In addition to introducing basic concepts, the author frequently refers to experimental data. Usually, both the basic theory and the applications discussed deal with the behavior of 'simple' metals, rather than the 'complicated' metals, such as the transition metals and the rare earths. Problems have been included for most of the chapters.

The World in Eleven Dimensions: Supergravity, Supermembranes and M-Theory
ISBN: 9780750306720 / Angielski / Miękka / 525 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A unified theory embracing all physical phenomena is a major goal of theoretical physics. In the early 1980s, many physicists looked to eleven-dimensional supergravity in the hope that it might provide that elusive superunified theory. In 1984 supergravity was knocked off its pedestal by ten-dimensional superstrings, one-dimensional objects whose vibrational modes represent the elementary particles. Superstrings provided a perturbative finite theory of gravity which, after compactification to four spacetime dimensions, seemed in principle capable of explaining the Standard Model. Despite...
