The study of critical phenomena is one of the most exciting areas of modern physics. This book
provides a thorough but economic introduction into the principles and techniques of the theory
of critical phenomena and the renormalization group, from the perspective of modern
condensed matter physics. Assuming basic knowledge of quantum and statistical mechanics,
the book discusses phase transitions in magnets, superfluids, superconductors, and gauge field
theories. Particular attention is given to modern topics such as gauge field fluctuations in
superconductors, the Kosterl itz
—
Thou less transition, duality transformations, and quantum
phase transitions, all of which are at the forefront of today s physics research.
A Modern Approach to critical Phenomena contains numerous problems of varying degrees of
difficulty, with solutions. These problems provide readers with a wealth of material to test their
understanding of the subject. It is ideal for graduate students and more experienced researchers
in the fields of condensed matter physics, statistical physics and many-body physics.
IGOR HERBUT is Professor of Physics at Simon
Fraser
University in Bumaby, British Columbia.
He has held visiting appointments atthe Max Planck institute, the Kavli Institute for Theoretical
Physics, and the Tokyo institute of Technology. Professor Herbut has authored a number of
research papers on quantum phase transitions, disordered systems, gauge field theories, and
high-temperature superconductivity.
