Field theory of non-equilibrium systems / Alex Kamenev.

Kamenev, Alex, 1964-

Call Number	530.14/3
Author	Kamenev, Alex, 1964- author.
Title	Field theory of non-equilibrium systems / Alex Kamenev.
Physical Description	1 online resource (xiv, 341 pages) : digital, PDF file(s).
Notes	Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 05 Oct 2015).
Contents	1. Introduction -- 2. Bosons -- 3. Single-particle quantum mechanics -- 4. Classical stochastic systems -- 5. Bosonic fields -- 6. Dynamics of collisionless plasma -- 7. Kinetics of Bose condensates -- 8. Dynamics of phase transitions -- 9. Fermions -- 10. Quantum transport -- 11. Disordered fermionic systems -- 12. Mesoscopic effects -- 13. Electron-electron interactions in disordered metals -- 14. Dynamics of disordered superconductors.
Summary	The physics of non-equilibrium many-body systems is one of the most rapidly expanding areas of theoretical physics. Traditionally used in the study of laser physics and superconducting kinetics, these techniques have more recently found applications in the study of dynamics of cold atomic gases, mesoscopic and nano-mechanical systems. The book gives a self-contained presentation of the modern functional approach to non-equilibrium field-theoretical methods. They are applied to examples ranging from biophysics to the kinetics of superfluids and superconductors. Its step-by-step treatment gives particular emphasis to the pedagogical aspects, making it ideal as a reference for advanced graduate students and researchers in condensed matter physics.
