Download or read book Two-dimensional Strongly Correlated Electronic Systems written by China Center of Advanced Science and Technology and published by Routledge. This book was released on 1989 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses present problems and looks towards the future development of new ideas in the field. The series of lectures places emphasis on the theoretical development of high Tc superconducting oxide materials. Contributions include an introduction to strongly correlated systems, the basic concepts of the Mott insulator, the fractional quantum Hall effect and a review of the current thoughts on resonating valence bonds. Research techniques such as variational Monte Carlo methods, mean field theories and topological excitations are also covered. The book will be of general interest and value to graduate students and researchers involved in the study of condensed matter theory.
