Focuses on a recent approach to adiabatic perturbation theory,
which emphasizes the role of effective equations of motion and the
separation of the adiabatic limit from the semiclassical limit. A
detailed introduction gives an overview of the subject and makes
the later chapters accessible also to readers less familiar with
the material. Although the general mathematical theory based on
pseudodifferential calculus is presented in detail, there is an
emphasis on concrete and relevant examples from physics.
Applications range from molecular dynamics to the dynamics of
electrons in a crystal and from the quantum mechanics of partially
confined systems to Dirac particles and nonrelativistic QED.
