Ma; Lectures on Phase Transitions and the Renormalization Group, by N. Particularly, people studied the low temperature, quantum critical systems near critical point (see, e.g., [4, 5] and references therein). Emphasis is first put on critical phenomena and scale invariance in classical systems. Here is what I would like to cover, in just 12 lectures: Gibbs free energy; First-order phase transitions; Thermodynamics of mixing; Chemical equilibrium; Continuous phase transitions and critical phenomena. These ideas are then seen at work in quantum systems. It is impressive that Anderson did this before Wilson and Fisher used renormalisation group ideas to describe critical phenomena in classical phase transitions.

In 2012 the ICMP Young Minds section received a grant from EPS for the organization of 15-th Annual workshop Annual Workshop on Phase Transitions and Critical Phenomena - ISING LECTURES 2012. Kopietz, Peter, Bartosch Keywords » functional renormalization group - phase transitions and critical phenomena - quantum many-body theory - strongly correlated electrons. The phenomena associated with continuous phase transitions are called critical phenomena, due to their association with critical points. Phase transitions in magnetic systems.
