Quantum systems in one-dimension and quantum transport
... Quantum systems confined to low dimensions, such as spin chains, carbon nanotubes or cold atoms in optical lattices, often behave in a universal way that is efficiently described in terms of simple effective theories. These introductory lectures will review the bosonization approach for one-dimensio ...
