It is the aim of this book to describe in concise form our present theoretical understanding of the nuclear many-body problem. The presen­ tation of the enormous amount of material …

This book is an updated and modified translation of the Russian edition of 1984. In the present edition, certain sections have been abridged (in particular, Sects. 6.1 and 8.3) and …

A fully relativistic treatment of the quantum mechanics of particles requires the introduction of quantum field theory, that is to say, the quantum mechan­ ics of systems with an …

The present third edition of The Statistical Mechanics of Financial Markets is published only four years after the ?rst edition. The success of the book highlights the interest in …

Simple random walks - or equivalently, sums of independent random vari­ ables - have long been a standard topic of probability theory and mathemat­ ical physics. In the 1950s, …

Critical phenomena arise in a wide variety of physical systems. Classi­ cal examples are the liquid-vapour critical point or the paramagnetic­ ferromagnetic transition. Further …

Over the past years the author has developed a quantum language going beyond the concepts used by Bohr and Heisenberg. The simple formal algebraic language is designed to be …

In this second volume on the Foundations of Quantum Mechanics we shall show how it is possible, using the methodology presented in Volume I, to deduce some of the most important …

This book is concerned with relativistic quantum field theory, especially QED, its most successful example. It is set in the no-man's land between the math­ ematically rigorous but …

F. J. Ynduráin's book on Quantum Chromodynamics has become a classic among advanced textbooks. First published in 1983, and translated into Russian in 1986, it now sees its fourth …

I consider teaching to have been one of my greatest privileges in life. I have al­ ways attemped to make a matter, sometimes difficult, sometimes in constant evolution, simpler and …

This text not only provides a thorough introduction to statistical physics and thermodynamics but also exhibits the universality of the chain of ideas that leads from the laws of …
