Spin Glasses and Other Frustrated Systems / / Debashish Chowdhury.
Debashish Chowdhury's critical review of more than a thousand papers not only identifies the complexities involved in the theoretical understanding of the real spin glasses but also explains the physical concepts and the mathematical formalisms that have been used successfully in solving the in...

Summary: | Debashish Chowdhury's critical review of more than a thousand papers not only identifies the complexities involved in the theoretical understanding of the real spin glasses but also explains the physical concepts and the mathematical formalisms that have been used successfully in solving the infiniterange model.Originally published in 1987.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905. |
