Computational Statistical Physics

In this book, 16 experts describe the application of methods of statistical physics to various areas in physics: disordered materials, quasicrystals, semiconductors, and also to other areas beyond physics, such as financial markets, game theory, evolution, and traffic planning, in which statistical physics has recently become significant.

Illustrates how advances in numerical computing have contributed to progress in many areas of statistical physics and beyond (e.g. financial theory, evolution, traffic planning) Contains up-to-date tutorial contributions by 16 experts Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
