It provides an intuitive approximation to the physics of such diverse phenomena as liquid-vapor transitions, ferromagnetism, superconductivity, order-disorder in alloys, ferroelectricity, superfluidity and ferroelasticity. The connection between the effective field approach and Landau's theory is stressed. The main coverage is devoted to specific applications of the effective field concept to ferroelectric systems, both hydrogen bonded ferroelectrics, like those in the TGS family, and oxWorld Scientific lecture notes in physics ;v. 76.Phase transformations (Statistical physics)Field theory (Physics)Ferroelectric crystalsElectronic books.Phase transformations (Statistical physics)Field theory (Physics)Ferroelectric crystals.530.414530.474Gonzalo Julio A(Julio Antonio)870857MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910458405803321Effective field approach to phase transitions and some applications to ferroelectrics1961441UNINA01521nam 2200505 450 991048067400332120201010075619.01-4704-6138-2(CKB)4100000011309198(MiAaPQ)EBC6229937(PPN)250768305(EXLCZ)99410000001130919820201010d2020 uy 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierAffine flag varieties and quantum symmetric pairs /Zhaobing Fan [and four others]Providence, Rhode Island :American Mathematical Society,2020.1 online resource (136 pages)1-4704-4175-6 Includes bibliographical references.Flag manifoldsAffine algebraic groupsQuantum groupsSchur complementKazhdan-Lusztig polynomialsAlgebra, HomologicalElectronic books.Flag manifolds.Affine algebraic groups.Quantum groups.Schur complement.Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials.Algebra, Homological.516.3/53Fan Zhaobing941167MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910480674003321Affine flag varieties and quantum symmetric pairs2122847UNINA01739aam 2200433I 450 991070958550332120130305041322.0GOVPUB-C13-5243c929cb7e23530d40feed04ea6ecf(CKB)5470000002479143(OCoLC)828938681(EXLCZ)99547000000247914320130305d2013 ua 0engtxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierBenefits and Costs of Energy Standard Adoption in New Commercial Buildings Northeast Census Region /Joshua KneifelGaithersburg, MD :U.S. Dept. of Commerce, National Institute of Standards and Technology,2013.1 online resource (144 pages) illustrations (some color)NIST special publication ;1148-1"February 2013."Contributed record: Metadata reviewed, not verified.
