Tag hinzufügen | Zusammenfassung: | This book presents the advances made in Statistical Mechanics of the last 50 years, including mathematical theorems on order and phase transitions; numerical and series computations of phase diagrams; and solutions for important solvable models including Ising and 8 vertex. Statistical Mechanics is the study of systems where the number of interacting particles becomes infinite. In the last fifty years tremendous advances have been made which have required the invention of entirely new fields of mathematics such as quantum groups and affine Lie algebras. They have engendered remarkable discoveries concerning non-linear differential equations and algebraic geometry, and have produced profound insights in both condensed matter physics and quantum field theory. Unfortunately, none of these advances are taught in graduate courses in statistical mechanics. |
