Statistical Mechanics of Phase Transitions J. M. Yeomans
Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA

Thermodynamic and Statistical Physics First- and second-order phase transitions. The crucial claim is that phase transitions are qualitative changes that cannot be reduced to fit the more fundamental explanatory principles of statistical mechanics. The positions are funded by the ERC starting grant “Phase transitions and computational complexity”. Mathematical statistical mechanics. Kadanoff's work in the theory of phase transitions in statistical physics, for example, led to a better understanding of the conversion of water to ice or water to water vapor. Solvable Models in Algebraic Statistical Mechanics (Science Research Papers);D.A. Now that we know what order parameters are (see last lecture), we'll use the order parameter of a phase to construct the Landau free energy.

Relativistic quantum mechanics: Klein-Gordon and Dirac equations. ISRN Condensed Matter Physics The second class of work is the phase transitions which demand the Landau expansion of the free energy in the order parameter [3, 8, 11].
