Statistical Mechanics and the Physics of the Many-Particle Model Systems
by A. L. Kuzemsky
Publisher: arXiv 2011
Number of pages: 78
Description:
The development of methods of quantum statistical mechanics is considered in light of their applications to quantum solid-state theory. We discuss fundamental problems of the physics of magnetic materials and the methods of the quantum theory of magnetism, including the method of two-time temperature Green's functions, which is widely used in various physical problems of many-particle systems with interaction.

Introduction to the Field Theory of Classical and Quantum Phase Transitionsby Flavio S. Nogueira - arXiv
These notes provide a self-contained introduction to field theoretic methods employed in the study of classical and quantum phase transitions. Classical phase transitions occur at a regime where quantum fluctuations do not play an important role.
