The book is based on the lectures given at the CIME school "Quantum
many body systems" held in the summer of 2010. It provides a
tutorial introduction to recent advances in the mathematics of
interacting systems, written by four leading experts in the field:
V. Rivasseau illustrates the applications of constructive Quantum
Field Theory to 2D interacting electrons and their relation to
quantum gravity; R. Seiringer describes a proof of Bose-Einstein
condensation in the Gross-Pitaevski limit and explains the effects
of rotating traps and the emergence of lattices of quantized
vortices; J.-P. Solovej gives an introduction to the theory of
quantum Coulomb systems and to the functional analytic methods used
to prove their thermodynamic stability; finally, T. Spencer
explains the supersymmetric approach to Anderson localization and
its relation to the theory of random matrices. All the lectures are
characterized by their mathematical rigor combined with physical
insights.
How will global environmental change affect the landscape and our
interaction with it? Apart from climate change, there are other
important catalysts of landscape change, including relief,
hydroclimate and runoff, sea level variations and human activity.
This volume summarizes the state-of-the-art concerning the
geomorphic implications of global environmental change, analyzing
such effects on lakes, rivers, coasts, reefs, rainforests,
savannas, deserts, glacial features, and mountains. Providing a
benchmark statement from the world s leading geomorphologists on
the current state of, and potential changes to, the environment,
this book is invaluable for advanced courses on geomorphology and
environmental science, and as a reference for research scientists.
Interdisciplinary in scope, with a primary audience of Earth and
environmental scientists, geographers, geomorphologists and
ecologists, it also has a wider reach to those concerned with the
social, economic and political issues raised by global
environmental change, and is useful to policy makers and
environmental managers.
