Out-of-Equilibrium Physics of Correlated Electron Systems

This book is a wide-ranging survey of the physics of out-of-equilibrium systems of correlated electrons ranging from the theoretical to the numerical computational and experimental aspects. It starts from basic approaches to non-equilibrium physics such as the mean-field approach then proceeds to more advanced methods such as dynamical mean-field theory and master equation approaches. Lastly it offers a comprehensive overview of the latest advances in experimental investigations of complex quantum materials by means of ultrafast spectroscopy.
