Modern Condensed Matter Physics brings together the most important
advances in the field of recent decades. It provides instructors
teaching graduate-level condensed matter courses with a
comprehensive and in-depth textbook that will prepare graduate
students for research or further study as well as reading more
advanced and specialized books and research literature in the
field. This textbook covers the basics of crystalline solids as
well as analogous optical lattices and photonic crystals, while
discussing cutting-edge topics such as disordered systems,
mesoscopic systems, many-body systems, quantum magnetism,
Bose–Einstein condensates, quantum entanglement, and
superconducting quantum bits. Students are provided with the
appropriate mathematical background to understand the topological
concepts that have been permeating the field, together with
numerous physical examples ranging from the fractional quantum Hall
effect to topological insulators, the toric code, and majorana
fermions. Exercises, commentary boxes, and appendices afford
guidance and feedback for beginners and experts alike.
