We consider a statistical system, described by a relativistic neutral scalar massive quantum field with t-dependent mass parameter. By assumption, the system is represented at time t 0 by a nonequilibrium initial gaussian density operator Ο in,g with spatial inhomogeneities ( potentially interesting
We study the nonequilibrium statistical mechanics of classical lattice Ο 4 theory in thermal gradients of arbitrary strength. The steady-state physics of the theory in (1 + 1) dimensions is investigated from first principles and classified into dynamical regimes. The bulk properties associated with
Quantum field theory is frequently approached from the perspective of particle physics. This book adopts a more general point of view and includes applications of condensed matter physics. Written by a highly respected writer and researcher, it first develops traditional concepts, including Feynman
