This course presents an introduction to statistical mechanics geared towards materials scientists. The concepts of macroscopic thermodynamics will be related to a microscopic picture and a statistical interpretation. Lectures and exercises will be compleme ...
Topics covered: Superfluidity in weakly interacting Bose gas, the random phase approximation to the Coulomb interaction in the Jellium model, superconductivity within the random phase approximation, the renormalization group analysis of non-linear-sigma mo ...
La réponse statique et dynamique des systèmes couplés fluide-structure résultant de l'excitation indépendante, l'excitation induite par le mouvement, et l'excitation induite par les instabilités des fluides. ...
Le cours aborde la persuasion et ses techniques, telles qu'étudiées en psychologie sociale. Les étudiant.e.s prennent connaissance des théories pertinentes et des expériences qui étayent ces théories. ...
This course introduces statistical field theory, and uses concepts related to phase transitions to discuss a variety of complex systems (random walks and polymers, disordered systems, combinatorial optimisation, information theory and error correcting cod ...
Introduction to the physics of random processes and disordered systems, providing an overview over phenomena, concepts and theoretical approachesTopics include:
Random walks; Roughening/pinning; Localization; Random matrix theory; Spin glasses; Disorder ...
Supersymmetry is the unique quantum extension of the symmetry principles of relativity.
This course offers a first but broad introduction covering the role of Supersymmetry in our understanding of both physics beyond the Standard Model and non-perturbative ...
