1	Fearful Symmetry: The Search for Beauty in Modern Physics more books like this by A Zee add to wishlist "Fearful Symmetry" brings the incredible discoveries of contemporary physics within everyone's grasp. A. Zee, a distinguished physicist and skillful expositor, tells the exciting story of how today's theoretical physicists are following Einstein in their search for the beauty and simplicity of Nature.

5	From Peturbative to Constructive Renormalization more books like this by Vincent Rivasseau, Arthur S Wightman (Editor), Philip W Anderson (Editor) add to wishlist The last decade has seen striking progress in the subject of renormalization in quantum field theory. The old subject of perturbative renormalization has been revived by the use of powerful methods such as multiscale decompositions; precise estimates have been added to the initial theorems on finiteness of renormalized perturbation theory, with ... see all copies from $7.22! new only from $39.50! \| first editions
6	Renormalization Methods: A Guide for Beginners more books like this by William David McComb add to wishlist This book is unique in occupying a gap between standard undergraduate texts and more advanced texts on quantum field theory. It covers a range of renormalization methods with a clear physical interpretation (and motivation), including mean-field theories and high-temperature and low-density expansions. It then proceeds by easy steps to the famous ... see all copies from $37.95! new only from $37.95! \| SVS
7	Phase Transitions and Renormalization Group more books like this by Jean Zinn-Justin add to wishlist This work tries to provide an elementary introduction to the notions of continuum limit and universality in statistical systems with a large number of degrees of freedom. The existence of a continuum limit requires the appearance of correlations at large distance, a situation that is encountered in second order phase transitions, near the critical ... see all copies from $60.00! new only from $68.74! \| first editions \| SVS
8	The physics of fluid turbulence more books like this by McComb add to wishlist Since 1960 the study of turbulence has been enhanced by developments in areas such as laser anemometry, powerful computers, digital data processing and theoretical methods from quantum physics. Turbulence is the archetypal non-linear, non-equilibrium problem of statistical physics; the fundamental problems of turbulence are still unsolved, but ... see all copies from $99.11! new only from $105.58! \| SVS
9	Renormalization Methods: Critical Phenomena, Chaos, Fractal Structures more books like this by Annick Lesne add to wishlist 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. see all copies from $256.83! new only from $256.83! \| SVS
10	Statistical Physics: Statics, Dynamics and Renormalization more books like this by Leo P Kadanoff add to wishlist The material presented in this textbook has been tested in two courses. One of these is a graduate-level survey of statistical physics; the other, a rather personal perspective on critical behaviour. Thus, this book defines a progression starting at the book-learning part of graduate education and ending in the midst of topics at the research ... see all copies from $33.14! new only from $33.14! \| SVS
11 view cover	Renormalization an introduction to renormalization, the renormalization group, and the operator-product expansion more books like this by Collins add to wishlist Most of the numerical predictions of experimental phenomena in particle physics over the last decade have been made possible by the discovery and exploitation of the simplifications that can happen when phenomena are investigated on short distance and time scales. This book provides a coherent exposition of the techniques underlying these ... see all copies from $44.63! new only from $44.63! \| SVS

Recent years have seen enormous progress in the numerical treatment of low-dimensional quantum sytems. With this new technique, which selects a reduced set of basis states via density matrices, it has become possible to treat large systems with ... see all copies from $124.41! new only from $124.41! \| SVS

R.S. Mills gives a simple overview of how renormalization works in quantum electrodynamics, showing how to replace the formal charge and mass parameters of the Lagrangian by the corresponding measured values, thus producing a consistent and ... see all copies from $40.00! new only from $89.41! \| first editions
18 view cover	Applications of Noncovariant Gauges in T more books like this by A Boresch, M Schweda, T Sommer add to wishlist The aim of this work is to apply the algebraic renormalization procedure to gauge field models quantized in non-standard gauges. The main ingredient of the algebraic renormalization program is the quantum action principle, which allows one to control in a unique manner the breaking of a symmetry induced by a noninvariant subtraction scheme.
