Thermal quantum field theoryalgebraic aspects and applications /[electronic resource] :Faqir C. Khanna ... [et al.]. - Singapore ;World Scientific Pub. Co.,c2009. - xix, 461 p. :ill. (some col.)

Includes bibliographical references (p. 445-455) and index.

This monograph presents recent developments in quantum field theory at finite temperature. By using Lie groups, ideas from thermal theory are considered with concepts of symmetry, allowing for applications not only to quantum field theory but also to transport theory, quantum optics and statistical mechanics. This includes an analysis of geometrical and topological aspects of spatially confined systems with applications to the Casimir effect, superconductivity and phase transitions. Finally, some developments in open systems are also considered. The book provides a unified picture of the fundamental aspects in thermal quantum field theory and their applications, and is important to the field as a result, since it combines several diverse ideas that lead to a better understanding of different areas of physics.
