Short description:
This book is a pedagogical yet complete introduction to the physics of one-dimensional systems, a topic of fundamental importance in the light of today's progress in nanotechnology and materials research. Written in a gentle, easy-going style it is accessible to graduate students and leads to the frontiers of current research.
Long description:
This book presents in a pedagogical yet complete way correlated systems in one dimension. Recent progress in nanotechnology and material research have made one dimensional systems a crucial part of today's physics. After an introduction to the basic concepts of correlated systems, the book gives a step by step description of the techniques needed to treat one dimension, and discusses the resulting physics. Then specific experimental realizations of one dimensional systems such as spin chains, quantum wires, nanotubes, organic superconductors etc. are examined. Given its progressive and pedagogical approach, this book should satisfy both graduate students who want to learn the tools of the trade and become professionals in the field as well as more advanced researchers who want to know more about the physics of a specific one dimensional system without unnecessary technicalities.
The book is written in a clear style, most often trying to convey the main results without too many details of technicalities.
