Overview

Provides the basic technical background necessary in the application of algebraic models composed of bosons and fermions with an emphasis on group-theoretical techniques. Features a full analysis of schematic two-dimensional models, simplified in a significant way through the use of standard angular momentum theory. Covers the study of molecular algebraic models and the interacting boson model of nuclear structure. Includes numerous equations and end-of-chapter summaries.

The techniques of group theory are of considerable significance to a large proportion of current theoretical investigations in physics. This volume introduces some of these methods through the study of boson-fermion systems of increasing complexity, starting with a simple model where the underlying symmetry structure is the familiar angular momentum algebra. These models have found numerous applications in molecular and nuclear structure physics, and the volume serves as a complement to the study of these subjects, while also being useful in other domains of physics.
