The coupled cluster method / Raymond F. Bishop -- Atomic and molecular applications of the coupled cluster method / Uzi Kaldor -- A thermal cluster-cumulant theory / Sheikh Hannan Mandal, Goutam Sanyal and Debashis Mukherjee -- Correlated basis function theory for fermion systems / Stefano Fantoni and Adelchi Fabrocini -- Inhomogeneous quantum liquids : statics, dynamics, and thermodynamics / Eckhard Krotscheck -- Some applications of correlated basis function theories in finite and infinite nuclear systems / Adelchi Fabrocini -- Monte Carlo methods in quantum many-body theories / Rafael Guardiola -- Monte Carlo calculations of nuclei / Steven C. Pieper -- Diffusion Monte Carlo for excited states : application to liquid helium / Jordi Boronat.
Summary: Quantum many-body theories have become an essential tool for all physicists. The field is interdisciplinary, predicting the properties of macroscopic matter based on the fundamental interactions between the elementary constituents. This book presents a systematic and pedagogical approach to the coupled cluster method, correlated basis function theory and Monte Carlo methods. These topics are widely recognized and provide the most powerful and widely applicable theories of all available formulations of QMBT. As the future evolution of QMBT depends to a large measure on establishing links between these different methods, the authors discuss hyprid procedures that can build even further upon the huge strengths and great advantages of each theory.
