Classical dynamical density functional theory (DDFT) is one of the cornerstones of modern
statistical mechanics. It is an extension of the highly successful method of classical density …

An introductory review of the central ideas in the modern theory of dynamic critical
phenomena is followed by a more detailed account of recent developments in the field. The …

Anelastic Relaxation in Crystalline Solids provides an overview of anelasticity in crystals.
This book discusses the various physical and chemical phenomena in crystalline solids …

An overview of quantum phase transitions (QPTs) in metallic ferromagnets, discussing both
experimental and theoretical aspects, is given. These QPTs can be classified with respect to …

The statistical dynamics of a classical random variable that satisfies a nonlinear equation of
motion is recast in terms of closed self-consistent equations in which only the observable …

Preserving the correct dynamics at the coarse-grained (CG) level is a pressing problem in
the development of systematic CG models in soft matter simulation. Starting from the seminal …

This graduate-level introduction to the theory and applications of time correlation functions
and the molecular theory of fluid dynamics provides experimentalists with the theoretical …

The search for the QCD critical point in heavy-ion collision experiments requires dynamical
simulations of the bulk evolution of QCD matter as well as of fluctuations. We consider two …

Phase transition dynamics is centrally important to condensed matter physics. This 2002
book treats a wide variety of topics systematically by constructing time-dependent Ginzburg …

From the Preface:" The purpose of this book is to present and apply a language and to
discuss methods which make it very convenient to exploit such analogies, and which are …
