Many-particle systems play a fundamental role in physics where we encounter systems of molecules or systems of elementary particles in quantum field theory. Many-particle theories provide the basis for understanding the macroscopic behaviour of vast assemblies of interacting particles starting from their microscopic properties and leads to descriptions of entropy, statistical mechanics and fluid mechanics. Covering a wide range of topics and including more than 400 problems and solutions, this book is an ideal resource for students specialising in many-particle systems. Key features • Several hundred problems with solutions in each volume. • Problems range from basic introductory to advanced level. • Features worked examples as well as solutions to many problems. • Includes key concepts. • Covers essential complete physics course.

An impressively comprehensive textbook adopting a phenomenological approach to quantum physics. The chapters cover everything from basic definitions of key concepts to detailed discussions of the underlying theoretical framework, walking students step-by-step through the necessary mathematics and drawing clear connections between the theory and the most important modern research applications including quantum optics, fluids, nanophysics, entanglement, information, and relativity. With this book, students and researchers will have access to hundreds of real-world examples, exercises, and illustrations to support and expand their understanding. Instructors can tailor the content to suit the length and level of their course and will have access to an online solutions manual with fully worked solutions to all 300+ exercises in the book. Other online resources include Python simulations, additional exercises, and detailed appendices.

This practical guidebook provides a comprehensive set of exercises which illustrate the most relevant concepts in a first course on quantum many-body theory either as part of advanced undergraduate or graduate courses. The problems come with detailed solutions which can easily be followed either by both professors and students. Quantum many-body theory is relevant in a number of fields, from condensed matter to astrophysics. The problems proposed in this book cover this variety of topics and are illustrated whenever possible with state-of-the-art-examples. Key Features: Provides a problems-based approach to quantum many-body theory, unlike existing textbooks. In-depth solutions to problems are presented, with the aim to maximize understanding and improve the teaching experience of the subject. The multidisciplinary nature of quantum many-body theory is explored in problems that deal with nuclear physics to ultracold atoms and astrophysics.
