From the reviews of the third edition:
„The main purpose of this book is to provide graduate students, and also experienced researchers, with a clear and quite detailed survey of the applications of Green’s functions in different modern fields of quantum physics. … In summary, this book is a good manual for people who want to understand the physics and the various applications of Green’s functions in modern fields of physics. It can also be used as a starting point for studying numerical analysis in condensed matter theory.“ (Jean-Yves-Fortin, Mathematical Reviews, Issue, 2007 i)
Green's Functions in Quantum Physics
von Eleftherios N. EconomouLong-established and respected reference on a key mathematical methods in physics (first published in 1979). Substantially expanded 3rd edition (50% longer) now offers end-of-chapter problems and solutions (40% are solved) and additional appendices to serve as a self-tutorial and self-sufficient reference. Demonstrates the powerful and unifying formalism of Green's functions with many applications, including transport properties, carbon nanotubes, and photonics and phoontic crystals.
