Description for Topological Insulators and Topological Superconductors
Hardback. Num Pages: 264 pages, 66 line illus. 1 table. BIC Classification: PH. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 259 x 177 x 21. Weight in Grams: 706.
This graduate-level textbook is the first pedagogical synthesis of the field of topological insulators and superconductors, one of the most exciting areas of research in condensed matter physics. Presenting the latest developments, while providing all the calculations necessary for a self-contained and complete description of the discipline, it is ideal for graduate students and researchers preparing to work in this area, and it will be an essential reference both within and outside the classroom. The book begins with simple concepts such as Berry phases, Dirac fermions, Hall conductance and its link to topology, and the Hofstadter problem of lattice electrons ... Read more

Reviews for Topological Insulators and Topological Superconductors
"The book ... may be extremely useful to both graduate students and more senior researchers."
Vicentiu D. Radulescu, Zentralblatt MATH "Dr. Bernevig writes well and with insight... with a beginning graduate student in mind who wants to enter quickly the research in this field."
