Quantum Field Theory in Strongly Correlated Electronic Systems

Download or read book Quantum Field Theory in Strongly Correlated Electronic Systems written by Naoto Nagaosa and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1999-09-20 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book the author extends the concepts introduced in his Quantum Field Theory in Condensed Matter Physics to situations in which the strong electronic correlations are crucial for the understanding of the observed phenomena. Starting from a model field theory to illustrate the basic ideas, more complex systems are analyzed in turn. A special chapter is devoted to the description of antiferromagnets, doped Mott insulators, and quantum Hall liquids from the point of view of gauge theory.
