This thesis elucidates electron correlation effects in topological matter whose electronic states hold nontrivial topological properties robust against small perturbations.
This book offers a non-standard introduction to quantum mechanics and quantum field theory, approaching these topics from algebraic and geometric perspectives.

This book introduces readers to the fascinating world of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) and quarks and gluons, the elementary constituents of protons, neutrons, and all hadrons.
This lecture note provides a tutorial review of non-Abelian discrete groups and presents applications to particle physics where discrete symmetries constitute an important principle for model building.
This book is about supergravity, which combines the principles of general relativity and local gauge invariance with the idea of supersymmetries between bosonic and fermionic degrees of freedom.
This monograph provides an introduction to deformations of Poincare symmetries focusing on models with a Lie group momentum space and associated non-commutative space-times.
The third edition of the by now classic reference on rigorous analysis of symmetry breaking in both classical and quantum field theories adds new topics of relevance, in particular the effect of dynamical Coulomb delocalization, by which boundary conditions give rise to volume effects and to energy/mass gap in the Goldstone spectrum (plasmon spectrum, Anderson superconductivity, Higgs phenomenon).
It has been almost thirty years since Yang and Mills (1954) performed their pioneering work on gauge theories, and it is probably safe to say that we have in our hands a good candidate for a theory of the strong interactions, based precisely on a non-Abelian gauge theory.
In this corrected and enlarged edition of Borner's well respected textbook, you will find an up-to-date account of the interplay between particle physics and astrophysics upon which modern cosmology is founded.
"e;Quantum Dynamics"e; is a major survey of quantum theory based on Walter Greiner's long-running and highly successful courses at the University of Frankfurt.
This book is aimed at enabling the reader to obtain a working knowledge of the nuclear shell model and to understand nuclear structure within the framework of the shell model.
Atomic physics and its underlying quantum theory are the point of departure for many modern areas of physics, astrophysics, chemistry, biology, and even electrical engineering.

The purpose of this volume is to give a detailed account of a series of re- sults concerning some ergodic questions of quantum mechanics which have the past six years following the formulation of a generalized been addressed in Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy by A.
Recently, the collaboration between theory and experimentsin high-energy physics has become again more fruitful,important and practically indispensable.
From the Editors Preface: "e;Quark Matter 1987 was attended by about 250 scientists, representing 75 research institutions around the world - the scientific community engaged in experimental and theoretical studies of high energy nuclear collisions.
Synchrotron radiation as a spectroscopic research tool has undergone a most inter- esting and astonishing historical development and has now come to the stage of an exciting boom.
This volume comprises a collection of invited papers presented at the interna- tional symposium "e;The Future of Muon Physics"e;, May 7-9 1991, at the Ruprecht- Karls-Universitat in Heidelberg.
More than a generation of Gennan-speaking students around the world have worked their way to an understanding and appreciation of the power and beauty of modern theoretical physics - with mathematics, the most fundamental of sciences - using Walter Greiner's textbooks as their guide.
The 9th International Symposium on High Energy Spin Physics was held in Bonn, 6-15 September 1990, with the Physikalisches Institut der Universitat Bonn as the host.
This volume contains the written versions of invited lectures presented at the 29th "e;Internationale Universitatswochen fiir Kernphysik"e; in Schladming, Aus- tria, in March 1990.
The phenomenon of chirality occurs in many disciplines of natural sciences, such as elementary particle physics, chemistry of molecules, biopolymers and crystals, pharmacology, biology (snails, winding plants), and medicine (handedness).
In recent years the Standard Model of electroweak interactions has successfully passed a number of crucial tests, most notably in neutral current reactions and through the observation of W- and Z-bosons in proton-antiproton collisions.
"e;Physics at KAON"e;, an international meeting jointly organized by the KFA Jillich and TRI- UMF, was held in the Physikzentrum Bad Honnef from June 7 through June 9, 1989.
