Beginning with a treatise of non-relativistic 1D continuum Fermi and Bose quantum gases of identical spinless particles, this book describes the quantum inverse-scattering method and analysis of the related Yang–Baxter equation and integrable quantum Heisenberg models. It also discusses systems within condensed-matter physics, the complete solution of the sine-Gordon model and modern trends in the thermodynamic Bethe ansatz. Each chapter concludes with problems and solutions to help consolidate the reader’s understanding of the theory and its applications.
