{"product_id":"introduction-to-statistical-field-theory-edouard-brzin-9780521193030","title":"Introduction to Statistical Field Theory","description":"Knowledge of the renormalization group and field theory is a key part of physics, and is essential in condensed matter and particle physics. Written for advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate students, this textbook provides a concise introduction to this subject. The textbook deals directly with the loop-expansion of the free-energy, also known as the background field method. This is a powerful method, especially when dealing with symmetries, and statistical mechanics. In focussing on free-energy, the author avoids long developments on field theory techniques. The necessity of renormalization then follows.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Edouard Br騷in\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521193036\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521193030\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/22\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.70h x 7.00w x 0.50d","brand":"Edouard Br騷in","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43919992881407,"sku":"9780521193030","price":104.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_fc7e2f1a-f263-4ac6-a4ee-3e7bce12c3e7.jpg?v=1680813034","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/introduction-to-statistical-field-theory-edouard-brzin-9780521193030","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
