However, in transforming my lecture l notes into this book, I found a personal benefit: the organization of what I understand in a (hopefully simple) logical sequence. Very little in this text is my original contribution. Most of the knowledge was collected from the research literature. Some was acquired by conversations with colleagues; a kind of physics oral tradition passed between disciples of a similar faith. For many years, diagramatic perturbation theory has been the major theoretical tool for treating interactions in metals, semiconductors, itiner­ ant magnets, and superconductors. It is in essence a weak coupling expan­ sion about free quasiparticles. Many experimental discoveries during the last decade, including heavy fermions, fractional quantum Hall effect, high­ temperature superconductivity, and quantum spin chains, are not readily accessible from the weak coupling point of view. Therefore, recent years have seen vigorous development of alternative, nonperturbative tools for handling strong electron-electron interactions. I concentrate on two basic paradigms of strongly interacting (or con­ strained) quantum systems: the Hubbard model and the Heisenberg model. These models are vehicles for fundamental concepts, such as effective Ha­ miltonians, variational ground states, spontaneous symmetry breaking, and quantum disorder. In addition, they are used as test grounds for various nonperturbative approximation schemes that have found applications in diverse areas of theoretical physics. 410 0$aGraduate Texts in Contemporary Physics 606 $aCondensed matter 606 $aCondensed Matter Physics 615 0$aCondensed matter. 615 14$aCondensed Matter Physics. 676 $a530.41 700 $aAuerbach$b Assa$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$053952 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910970264203321 996 $aInteracting electrons and quantum magnetism$9188548 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03524nam 2200661Ia 450 001 9910960896203321 005 20251117114842.0 010 $a9780309182638 010 $a0309182638 010 $a9780309507851 010 $a0309507855 035 $a(CKB)111069351132922 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000166178 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11156879 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000166178 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10162249 035 $a(PQKB)10459158 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3375830 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3375830 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10046879 035 $a(OCoLC)53985933 035 $a(Perlego)4738351 035 $a(BIP)53856488 035 $a(BIP)10503879 035 $a(EXLCZ)99111069351132922 100 $a20030428d2003 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcn||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aGuatemala $ehuman rights and the Myrna Mack case /$fTorsten Wiesel and Carol Corillon, editors ; Committee on Human Rights, National Academy of Sciences, National Academy of Engineering, Institute of Medicine of the National Academies 205 $a1st ed. 210 $aWashington, D.C. $cNational Academies Press$dc2003 215 $aviii, 53 p 300 $aBibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph 311 08$a9780309089166 311 08$a0309089166 327 $aFront Matter -- Contents -- INTRODUCTION -- REPORT OF THE 2002 MISSION -- CONCLUSIONS -- APPENDIXES -- A.

Statement by the Myrna Mack Foundation. 330 $aTwo members of the Committee on Human Rights (CHR), NAS member Mary Jane West-Eberhard and NAS/NAE member Morton Panish, undertook a mission to Guatemala to observe the trial of two high-level Guatemalan military officials who were charged with ordering the murder of Guatemalan anthropologist Myrna Mack. She was stabbed to death in 1990, two days after a report for which she was principal researcher, "Assistance and Control: Policies Toward Internally Displaced Populations in Guatemala," was published by the Georgetown University Press. Ms. Mack had been doing research on and writing about the unjust treatment of the internally displaced people in Guatemala. Thirteen years after Ms. Mack's murder-after the case had gone through dozens of courts and countless delays-a general and colonel in the Guatemalan military intelligence apparatus were brought to trial, and one was convicted. This marked the first time in Guatemalan history that a high-level military official had been brought to justice for atrocities he committed during Guatemala's 30-year civil war. This report summarizes the one-month trial proceedings. 606 $aHuman rights$zGuatemala 606 $aTrials (Assassination)$zGuatemala 606 $aCriminal justice, Administration of$zGuatemala 606 $aScientists$xCivil rights$zGuatemala 615 0$aHuman rights 615 0$aTrials (Assassination) 615 0$aCriminal justice, Administration of 615 0$aScientists$xCivil rights 701 $aWiesel$b Torsten$01809869 701 $aCorillon$b Carol$01809870 712 02$aNational Academies (U.S.).$bCommittee on Human Rights. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910960896203321 996 $aGuatemala$94360886 997 $aUNINA
