{"product_id":"dynamics-of-classical-and-quantum-fields","title":"Dynamics of Classical and Quantum Fields","description":"\u003cp\u003eDynamics of Classical and Quantum Fields: An Introduction focuses on dynamical fields in non-relativistic physics. Written by a physicist for physicists, the book is designed to help readers develop analytical skills related to classical and quantum fields at the non-relativistic level, and think about the concepts and theory through numerous problems. In-depth yet accessible, the book presents new and conventional topics in a self-contained manner that beginners would find useful. A partial list of topics covered includes:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeometrical meaning of Legendre transformation in classical mechanics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDynamical symmetries in the context of Noether’s theorem\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe derivation of the stress energy tensor of the electromagnetic field, the expression for strain energy in elastic bodies, and the Navier Stokes equation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConcepts of right and left movers in case of a Fermi gas explained\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFunctional integration is interpreted as a limit of a sequence of ordinary integrations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePath integrals for one and two quantum particles and for a fermion in presence of a filled Fermi sea\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFermion and boson Fock spaces, along with operators that create and annihilate particles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoherent state path integrals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMany-body topics such as Schrieffer Wolff transformation, Matsubara, and Keldysh Green functions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeometrical meaning of the vortex-vortex correlation function in a charged boson fluid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNonlocal particle-hole creation operators which diagonalize interacting many-body systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe equal mix of novel and traditional topics, use of fresh examples to illustrate conventional concepts, and large number of worked examples make this book ideal for an intensive one-semester course for beginning Ph.D. students. It is also a challenging and thought provoking book for motivated advanced undergraduates.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54225123803480,"sku":"9781466556287","price":132.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781466556287_72bc2da7-89c8-44c7-914e-4a503e887cab.jpg?v=1768978846","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/dynamics-of-classical-and-quantum-fields","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
