Convexity in the Theory of Lattice Gases.

Mostrar otras versiones (1)

In this book, Robert Israel considers classical and quantum lattice systems in terms of equilibrium statistical mechanics. He is especially concerned with the characterization of translation-invariant equilibrium states by a variational principle and the use of convexity in studying these states. Ar...
