| Introduction to Quantum Fields on a Lattice |
Cambridge Lecture Notes in Physics, 15
Publication
Author/Editor: Jan Smit
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
This book provides a clear and pedagogical introduction to quantum fields on a lattice: a precise and non-perturbative definition of quantum field theory obtained by replacing the space-time continuum by a lattice. Suitable for use as a textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses, containing many explanatory examples and exercises. |

| Knots and Feynman Diagrams |
Cambridge Lecture Notes in Physics, 13
Publication
Author/Editor: Dirk Kreimer
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
Provides an accessible and up-to-date introduction to how knot theory and Feynman diagrams can be used to illuminate problems in quantum field theory. Dealing with material at perhaps the most productive interface between mathematics and physics, this book will be of interest to theoretical and particle physicists, and mathematicians. |

| An Introduction to Chaos in Nonequilibrium Statistical Mechanics |
Cambridge Lecture Notes in Physics, 14
Publication
Author/Editor: J. R. Dorfman
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
This book is an introduction to the applications in nonequilibrium statistical mechanics of chaotic dynamics, and also to the use of techniques in statistical mechanics important for an understanding of the chaotic behaviour of fluid systems. Of interest to graduate students and researchers with a background in statistical mechanics. |

| Quantum Chromodynamics and the Pomeron |
Cambridge Lecture Notes in Physics, 9
Publication
Author/Editor: J. R. Forshaw, D. A. Ross
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
The Pomeron is an object of crucial importance in very high energy particle physics, especially in diffraction scattering processes and small-x physics. This volume derives the Pomeron from first principles using techniques of perturbation theory, studies its properties, and shows how it should manifest itself in experiment. |

| Modern Cosmology and the Dark Matter Problem |
Cambridge Lecture Notes in Physics, 3
Publication
Author/Editor: D. W. Sciama
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
Written by a cosmologist of the first rank, shows how modern cosmology and astronomy have led to the need to introduce dark matter in the universe, and explains the author's recent theory to explain some puzzling phenomena in a unified way. |
