Quantum Scaling in Many-Body Systems: An Approach to Quantum Phase Transitions 2nd Edition by Mucio Continentino | (PDF) Free Download

Description

Quantum phase transitions are strongly relevant in a number of fields, ranging from condensed matter to cold atom physics and quantum field theory. This book, now in its second edition, approaches the problem of quantum phase transitions from a new and unifying perspective. Topics addressed include the concepts of scale and time invariance and their significance for quantum criticality, as well as brand new chapters on superfluid and superconductor quantum critical points, and quantum first order transitions. The renormalisation group in real and momentum space is also established as the proper language to describe the behaviour of systems close to a quantum phase transition. These phenomena introduce a number of theoretical challenges which are of major importance for driving new experiments. Being strongly motivated and oriented towards understanding experimental results, this is an excellent text for graduates, as well as theorists, experimentalists and those with an interest in quantum criticality.

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐I didnt particularly enjoy sachdev’s book on QPT. He has this really nice course website which makes you calculate stuff, whereas I found the text to have ~3ish chapters where i really got dirty with some model to understand the physics and the rest was like overviews of other work which doesnt give me the hands-on practice i wanted. This book was a nice compliment, which I would probably have preferred to start with. It sets the stage for what ive heard at conferences for heavy fermion quantum criticality and goes through the HMM paradigm. The question for me is what will remain true in 50 years. still as a contemporary introduction i would go with this book.
