商品描述
As an introductory account of the theory of phase transitions and critical phenomena, this book reflects lectures given by the authors to graduate students at their departments and is thus classroom-tested to help beginners enter the field. Most parts are written as self-contained units and every new concept or calculation is explained in detail without assuming prior knowledge of the subject. The book significantly enhances and revises a Japanese version which is a bestseller in the Japenese market and is considered a standard textbook in the field. It contains new pedagogical presentations of field theory methods, including a chapter on conformal field theory, and various modern developments hard to find in a single textbook on phase transitions. Exercises are presented as the topics develop, with solutions found at the end of the book, making the usefil for self-teaching, as well as for classroom learning.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
作為相變化和臨界現象理論的入門書籍，本書反映了作者在其系所對研究生所進行的講座，因此經過課堂測試，幫助初學者進入該領域。大部分內容以自成單元的方式撰寫，每個新概念或計算都詳細解釋，並不假設讀者具備該主題的先前知識。本書顯著增強並修訂了在日本市場上暢銷的日文版，並被視為該領域的標準教科書。它包含了場論方法的新教學呈現，包括一章關於共形場論的內容，以及各種現代發展，這些內容在單一的相變化教科書中難以找到。隨著主題的發展，練習題也隨之呈現，解答位於書末，使其對自學和課堂學習都非常有用。
