Green's Functions and Condensed Matter (Dover Books on Physics)

I am thrilled to see this book being re-printed. This is a graduate level textbook suitable for students with a background in undergraduate QM, solids, stat mech. What makes this book different from say, AGD or Fetter/Walecka (which are both fine texts), is that towards the later part of the book there are more actual applications. The superconductivity chapter is particularly good and I like the metal-transport one as well. Since most people who are going to read this intend on doing research, you might want to pair it with another modern book since it does not include path integrals. I have a combination of this, bruus flensberg, negele/orland or atland/simons, and AGD floating around the office at most times.

It covers the contents I was interested

It is very helpful for study Green function

In order to find this book useful, the reader needs much more than a background equivalent to graduate level courses in solid state physics and an acquaintance with Green's functions, he also needs a knowledge of quantum field theory (QTF) at the level of Ryder's  Quantum Field Theory . Feynman diagrams abound in this volume, and the reader needs to be quite familiar with them in order to understand this treatment. For the reader with an adequate knowledge of QTF, however, this book is quite useful. The discussion of the BCS (Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer) theory of superconductivity in solids is especially good.

An excellent introduction to Condensed Matter for those of us who like Green's Functions, one of the most powerful "tools" in applied mathematics.

Produto entregue conforme anunciado. Vendedores muito prestativos. Recomendo.

本書は、線形応答理論などの例を挙げてグリーン関数を学ぶ意義を述べた後、有限温度のグリーン関数から話が展開されます。（絶対零度のグリーン関数は省略）以降、不純物散乱や電子ガス、超伝導、磁性などについて記載されていて、物性への応用を強く意識した構成になっています。そういった意味で、なるべく無駄(?)を省いている印象を受けました。日本語で書かれたグリーン関数の著書に、阿部龍蔵の統計力学がありますが、それをパワーアップさせた感じです。本書に記載されていない絶対零度のグリーン関数は、アブリコソフやフェッタ－&ワレッカで学べば良いと思います。そして、安価なところも良いですね。ただ、誤植はかなり多いので注意が必要です。

グリーン関数は使いこなすのは中々至難の業であるが、物理学においては大変有用な数学的道具となる。本書はあくまで物理学にスポットを当てながら、グリーン関数の使い道を、多すぎず少なすぎず、手頃な値段で入手できる。和書ではグリーン関数の良書がほとんど皆無なので、凝縮系物理の理論系を志す学生さんや研究者にとっては、大変いい書籍となるであろう。

Book presents concepts and ideas of Green's function technique in Condensed matter physics.But there are numerous typos, so need to verify it.
