| Sumario: | This book reviews some of the classic aspects in the theory of phasetransitions and critical phenomena, which has a longhistory. Recently, these aspects are attracting much attention due toessential new contributions. The topics presented in this bookinclude: mathematical theory of the Ising model; equilibrium andnon-equilibrium criticality of one-dimensional quantum spin chains;influence of structural disorder on the critical behaviour of thePotts model; criticality, fractality and multifractality of linkedpolymers; field-theoretical approaches in the superconducting phasetransitions. |

| Notas: | Preface by Yurij Holovatch and Ivan Franko. "This book is based on the review lectures that were given in Lviv (Ukraine) in March 2002 at the 'Ising lectures'--a traditional annual workshop on phase transitions and critical phenomena which aims to bring together scientists working in the field of phase transitions with university students and those who are interested in the subject"--Page 4 of cover |
