Major advances have been made in both theoretical and experimental investigations of the nature and behavior of quantum phases and transitions in cooperatively interacting many-body quantum systems.  For modeling purposes, most of the current innovative and successful research in this field has been obtained by either directly or indirectly using the insights provided by quantum (or transverse field) Ising models because of the separability of the cooperative interaction from the tunable transverse field or tunneling term in the relevant Hamiltonian. Also, a number of condensed matter systems can be modeled accurately in this approach, hence granting the possibility to compare advanced models with actual experimental results.  This work introduces these quantum Ising models and analyses them both theoretically and numerically in great detail. With its tutorial approach the book addresses above all young researchers who wish to enter the field and are in search of a suitable and self-contained text, yet it will also serve as a valuable reference work for all active researchers in this area.Lecture Notes in Physics,0075-8450 ;862Phase transitions (Statistical physics)Statistical physicsDynamical systemsMagnetismMagnetic materialsQuantum physicsPhase Transitions and Multiphase Systemshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25099Complex Systemshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P33000Magnetism, Magnetic Materialshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25129Quantum Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19080Statistical Physics and Dynamical Systemshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19090Phase transitions (Statistical physics).Statistical physics.Dynamical systems.Magnetism.Magnetic materials.Quantum physics.Phase Transitions and Multiphase Systems.Complex Systems.Magnetism, Magnetic Materials.Quantum Physics.Statistical Physics and Dynamical Systems.530.13/3Suzuki Seiauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut879651Inoue Jun-ichiauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autChakrabarti Bikas Kauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK996466687703316Quantum Ising Phases and Transitions in Transverse Ising Models1964417UNISA
