N1  - Includes bibliographical references and index; Foundations of quantum statistical mechanics -- Elementary examples -- Quantum statistical master equation -- Quantum kinetic equations -- Quantum irreversibility -- Entropy and dissipation : the microscopic theory -- Global equilibrium : thermostatics and the microcanonical ensemble -- Bose-Einstein ideal gas condensation -- Scaling, renormalization, and the Ising model -- Relativistic covariant statistical mechanics of many particles -- Quantum optics and damping -- Entanglements -- Quantum measurement and irreversibility -- Quantum Langevin equation and quantum Brownian motion -- Linear response : fluctuation and dissipation theorems -- Time-dependent quantum Green's functions -- Decay scattering -- Quantum statistical mechanics, extended -- Quantum transport with tunneling and reservoir ballistic transport -- Black hole thermodynamics
N2  - Many-body theory stands at the foundation of modern quantum statistical mechanics. It is introduced here to graduate students in physics, chemistry, engineering and biology. The book provides a contemporary understanding of irreversibility, particularly in quantum systems
