Description for Renormalisation Methods
Hardcover. Renormalization analysis reveals how microscopic mechanisms can organize themselves to produce macroscopic consequences. These techniques are applied in various fields of physics, from phase transitions and magnetic systems, to dynamical systems, percolation and fractal structures, random walks, and polymers. Num Pages: 374 pages, illustrations. BIC Classification: PHF; PHQ. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 254 x 183 x 27. Weight in Grams: 820.
Originally conceived some thirty years ago in the context ofquantum electrodynamics, renormalization methods have progressivelydeveloped into an indispensable analytical tool used in widelyvarying domains of physics and applied mathematics, such as
* phase transitions and critical phenomena
* dynamical systems and chaos
* developed turbulence
* fractal structures and complex systems
* percolation
* polymer physics
* diffusion in disordered media
* measure theory and stochastic processes.
By explaining the fundamental principles of renormalization theorysuch as scale invariance and universality which lie behind all thetechnical variations, this book aims to guide ... Read more
