This graduate-level text collects and synthesizes a series of ten
lectures on the nuclear quantum many-body problem. Starting from
our current understanding of the underlying forces, it presents
recent advances within the field of lattice quantum chromodynamics
before going on to discuss effective field theories, central
many-body methods like Monte Carlo methods, coupled cluster
theories, the similarity renormalization group approach, Green's
function methods and large-scale diagonalization approaches.
Algorithmic and computational advances show particular promise for
breakthroughs in predictive power, including proper error
estimates, a better understanding of the underlying effective
degrees of freedom and of the respective forces at play. Enabled by
recent improvements in theoretical, experimental and numerical
techniques, the state-of-the art applications considered in this
volume span the entire range, from our smallest components - quarks
and gluons as the mediators of the strong force - to the
computation of the equation of state for neutron star matter. The
lectures presented provide an in-depth exposition of the underlying
theoretical and algorithmic approaches as well details of the
numerical implementation of the methods discussed. Several also
include links to numerical software and benchmark calculations,
which readers can use to develop their own programs for tackling
challenging nuclear many-body problems.
