Montroll Memorial Lecture Series in Mathematical Physics

This series stems from the memorial Lecture Series in Mathematical Physics sponsored by the University of Rochester and honors the eminent mathematical physicist, Elliot Montroll, who earned an international reputation for his outstanding work in diverse areas of physics. Each volume is the result of a set of four or five lectures given by an invited, distinguished physicist. Each book is coherently written and will provide more than a simple transcript of the lectures. Books can cover mathematical and theoretical aspects of a broad spectrum of topics in physics from statistical mechanics and quantum field theory to optics, solid state physics, and nonlinear science. Thus the series should be of interest to a wide range of researchers and graduate students in physics and mathematics.
