Quantum many-body systems are a central feature of condensed matter physics, relevant to important, modern research areas such as ultrafast light-matter interactions and quantum information. This book offers detailed coverage of the contour Green's function formalism – an approach that can be successfully applied to solve the quantum many-body and time-dependent problems present within such systems. Divided into three parts, the text provides a structured overview of the relevant theoretical and practical tools, with specific focus on the Schwinger-Keldysh formalism. Part I introduces the mathematical frameworks that make use of Green's functions in normal phase states. Part II covers fermionic superfluid phases with discussion of topics such as the BCS-BEC crossover and superconducting systems. Part III deals with the application of the Schwinger-Keldysh formalism to various topics of experimental interest. Graduate students and researchers will benefit from the book's comprehensive treatment of the subject matter and its novel arrangement of topics.

Giancarlo Calvenese Strinati is Emeritus Professor of Physics at the University of Camerino and his research is focused on condensed matter physics and ultra-cold atoms. He earned his Ph.D. at the University of Chicago in 1977 with support from the Fulbright Program, before spending a year as a Humboldt Fellow at the Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research. He joined the faculty of the Sapienza University of Rome – first as an Assistant Professor and then as an Associate Professor – and later worked at the Scuola Normale Superiore in Pisa. He has been a Fellow of the American Physical Society since 2010.
