The proceedings of the 2005 les Houches summer school on Mathematical Statistical Physics give and broad and clear overview on this fast developing area of interest to both physicists and mathematicians.
- Introduction to a field of math with many interdisciplinary connections in physics, biology, and computer science
- Roadmap to the next decade of mathematical statistical mechanics
- Volume for reference years to come
Jean Dalibard works in the field of atomic physics and quantum optics. His recent activities is centered on the physics of cold quantum gases, in particular Bose-Einstein condensation.
