It provides a step-by-step description of the material which will benefit not only professors wishing to undertake a similar task, but also interested students. Additionally, the book provides a complete set of exercises on the various topics along with hints about how to solve them, a feature frequently absent in textbooks on many-body techniques. As well as addressing the traditional topics in the field (diagrammatic techniques, screening in metals, Fermi liquid theory, electron-phonon interactions, etc.) the text also covers less conventional topics such as the application of non-equilibrium Green function techniques to quantum transport in normal and superconducting nanoscale devices. 0aCondensed matter. 0aElementary particles (Physics). 0aQuantum field theory.14aCondensed Matter Physics.24aStrongly Correlated Systems.24aElementary Particles, Quantum Field Theory.1 aYeyati, Alfredo Levy.eauthor.4aut4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut2 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978303155142008iPrinted edition:z978303155144408iPrinted edition:z9783031551451 0aUNITEXT for Physics,x2198-789040uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-55143-7
