For most of the last century, condensed matter physics has been dominated by band theory and Landau's symmetry breaking theory. In the last twenty years, howeve

Exactly solvable models are very important in physics from a theoretical point of view and also from the experimentalist's perspective, because in such cases th

The book is an introduction to quantum field theory applied to condensed matter physics. The topics cover modern applications in electron systems and electronic

This volume contains a set of pedagogical reviews covering the most recent applications of low-dimensional quantum field theory in condensed matter physics, wri
