Quantum Many-Body Physics: A Path Integral Approach offers a fresh perspective on quantum phenomena in condensed matter physics. This comprehensive book provides a powerful and versatile framework for understanding complex problems in systems such as ultracold atoms, superfluids, and superconductors. The text begins with a solid foundation in canonical quantum field theory before progressing... Read more

Biography

Luca Salasnich is a full Professor in Theoretical Physics of Matter at the Department of Physics and Astronomy "Galileo Galilei" of the University of Padova and a Fellow of the American Physical Society. His fields of research are condensed matter theory and statistical physics. In particular he studies nonlinear phenomena (chaos, solitons, and vortices) and macroscopic quantum effects (Bose-Einstein condensation, superfluidity, and superconductivity) in ultracold atomic gases and other many-body systems by using analytical and numerical methods.
