  • Aspects of Symmetry

    Selected Erice Lectures

    by Sidney Coleman ...
    For almost two decades, Sidney Coleman has been giving review lectures on frontier topics in theoretical high-energy physics at the International School of Subnuclear Physics held each year at Erice, Sicily. This volume is a collection of some of the best of these lectures. To this day they have few rivals for clarity of exposition and depth of insight. Although very popular when first published, ...

  • A First Course in Topos Quantum Theory

    by Cecilia Flori ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    In the last five decades various attempts to formulate theories of quantum gravity have been made, but none has fully succeeded in becoming the quantum theory of gravity. One possible explanation for this failure might be the unresolved fundamental issues in quantum theory as it stands now. Indeed, most approaches to quantum gravity adopt standard quantum theory as their starting point, with the ... Read more

  • Quantum Mechanics: A Modern Development (2nd Edition)

    by Leslie E Ballentine ...
    Although there are many textbooks that deal with the formal apparatus of quantum mechanics (QM) and its application to standard problems, none take into account the developments in the foundations of the subject which have taken place in the last few decades. There are specialized treatises on various aspects of the foundations of QM, but none that integrate those topics with the standard material ... Read more

  • String Theory: Volume 2, Superstring Theory and Beyond

    by Joseph Polchinski ...
    Series series Cambridge Monographs on Mathematical Physics
    String Theory, first published in 1998, comprises two volumes which provide a comprehensive and pedagogic account of the subject. Volume 2 begins with an introduction to supersymmetric string theories and presents the important advances of recent years. The first three chapters introduce the type I, type II, and heterototic superstring theories and their interactions. The next two chapters present ... Read more

  • Many-Body Schrödinger Dynamics of Bose-Einstein Condensates

    by Kaspar Sakmann ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    At extremely low temperatures, clouds of bosonic atoms form what is known as a Bose-Einstein condensate. Recently, it has become clear that many different types of condensates -- so called fragmented condensates -- exist. In order to tell whether fragmentation occurs or not, it is necessary to solve the full many-body Schrödinger equation, a task that remained elusive for experimentally relevant ... Read more

  • Off-Diagonal Bethe Ansatz for Exactly Solvable Models

    by Yupeng Wang, Wen-Li Yang, Junpeng Cao, Kangjie Shi ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book serves as an introduction of the off-diagonal Bethe Ansatz method, an analytic theory for the eigenvalue problem of quantum integrable models. It also presents some fundamental knowledge about quantum integrability and the algebraic Bethe Ansatz method. Based on the intrinsic properties of R-matrix and K-matrices, the book introduces a systematic method to construct operator identities ... Read more

  • Quantum Ising Phases and Transitions in Transverse Ising Models

    by Sei Suzuki, Jun-ichi Inoue, Bikas K. Chakrabarti ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Quantum phase transitions, driven by quantum fluctuations, exhibit intriguing features offering the possibility of potentially new applications, e.g. in quantum information sciences. Major advances have been made in both theoretical and experimental investigations of the nature and behavior of quantum phases and transitions in cooperatively interacting many-body quantum systems.For modeling ...

  • Asymptotic Analysis in General Relativity

    Edited by Thierry Daudé, Dietrich Häfner, Jean-Philippe Nicolas ...
    Series Book 443 - London Mathematical Society Lecture Note Series
    This volume compiles notes from four mini courses given at the summer school on asymptotic analysis in general relativity, held at the Institut Fourier in Grenoble, France. It contains an up-to-date panorama of modern techniques in the asymptotic analysis of classical and quantum fields in general relativity. Accessible to graduate students, these notes gather results that were not previously ... Read more

  • Symmetries in Atomic Nuclei

    From Isospin to Supersymmetry

    by Alejandro Frank, Jan Jolie, Pieter van Isacker ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Symmetries in Atomic Nuclei aims to present an overview of recent applications of symmetry to the description of atomic nuclei. Special care is given to a pedagogical introduction of symmetry concepts using simple examples. After a historical overview of the applications of symmetry in nuclear physics, progress in the field during the last decade is reviewed. Special emphasis is put on the ... Read more

  • Gauge Invariance and Weyl-polymer Quantization

    by Franco Strocchi ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    The book gives an introduction to Weyl non-regular quantization suitable for the description of physically interesting quantum systems, where the traditional Dirac-Heisenberg quantization is not applicable. The latter implicitly assumes that the canonical variables describe observables, entailing necessarily the regularity of their exponentials (Weyl operators). However, in physically interesting ...

  • Quantum Information, Computation and Cryptography

    An Introductory Survey of Theory, Technology and Experiments

    Edited by Fabio Benatti, Mark Fannes, Roberto Floreanini, Dimitri Petritis ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This multi-authored textbook addresses graduate students with a background in physics, mathematics or computer science. No research experience is necessary. Consequently, rather than comprehensively reviewing the vast body of knowledge and literature gathered in the past twenty years, this book concentrates on a number of carefully selected aspects of quantum information theory and technology. ...

  • Embedded Random Matrix Ensembles in Quantum Physics

    by V.K.B. Kota ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Although used with increasing frequency in many branches of physics, random matrix ensembles are not always sufficiently specific to account for important features of the physical system at hand. One refinement which retains the basic stochastic approach but allows for such features consists in the use of embedded ensembles.The present text is an exhaustive introduction to and survey of this ...
