Field Theory, Topology And Condensed Matter Physics: Proceedings Of The Ninth Chris Engelbrecht Summer School In Theoretical Physics Held At Storms River Mouth, Tsitsikamma National Park, South Africa, 17–28 January 1994 [DJVU]
E-Book Overview
This topical volume contains five pedagogically written articles on the interplay between field theory and condensed matter physics. The main emphasis is on the topological aspects, and especially quantum Hall fluids, and superconductivity is treated extensively. Other topics are conformal invariance and path integrals. The articles are carefully edited so that the book could ideally serve as a text for special graduate courses.
