Theory of Solids
TR 2:00p.m.-3:15p.m.
PHYS 2202
Instructor: Victor Galitski
Description:
The purpose of this course is to provide a framework for graduate
students to understand at an advanced level some of the most important
aspects of modern condensed matter physics. Modern theoretical
methods will be introduced and used throughout the course. They will include
the path integral formalism, the renormalization group, and diagrammatic techniques. Making
use of these methods, we will study interacting fermion and boson systems, Fermi liquid theory,
localization effects in disordered systems, and low-dimensional quantum magnets.
