課程概述

In this course, we will cover more advanced topics in statistical mechanics, including interacting bosonic and fermionic systems, second quantization, collective behavior, phase transitions and critical phenomena. Analytical and numerical techniques to study these problems, such as renormalization group, and Monte Carlo simulations will be introduced. 

課程目標
The objective of the course is to develop understanding and technical skills for interacting manybody systems.
