Summary:This book aims to present a concise introduction, for graduate students and researchers, to powerful techniques and important concepts in condensed matter physics. Key conceptual elements include the fluctuation-dissipation theorem, the theory of critical phenomena (both classical and quantum) and the renormalization group. The book focuses on the Green's functions method and the real space renormalization group (RG).
Target Audience:Graduate students and researchers in condensed matter physics. The book can be used as a textbook for courses in statistical mechanics and condensed matter physics.
