Introduction to Condensed Matter Theory (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9783031862502)

Pedro D. Sacramento is a Professor in the Departamento de Física of Instituto Superior Técnico, Universidade de Lisboa and a researcher at CeFEMA. He has lectured various courses in the area of Condensed Matter Physics, both at undergraduate and graduate levels. He is the co-author of two books published by IST Press, "Mecânica Quântica" and "Topologia em Matéria Condensada: Uma Introdução", written in Portuguese. The second book was also published by World Scientific with the title "Topology in Condensed Matter: An Introduction". In addition, he was co-editor of two other books published by World Scientific entitled "Topology of Strongly Correlated Systems", Proceedings of the XVIII Lisbon Autumn School, and "Strongly Correlated Systems: Coherence and Entanglement". His research has mainly focused on strongly correlated systems, integrable systems, spin coherent states, applications of quantum information techniques and topological properties to condensed matter and systems far from equilibrium. He obtained his PhD in Physics from Temple University as a Fullbright Scholar. He was a regular visitor at the Department of Physics and Astronomy of The Johns Hopkins University and has been an Associate Member of the Beijing Computational Science Research Center.
