Найти книгу: "Order, Disorder and Criticality"

This book is the sixth volume of reviews on advanced problems of phase transitions and critical phenomena, with the first five volumes appearing in 2004, 2007, 2012, 2015, and 2018. It aims to provide an overview of those aspects of criticality and related topics that have attracted much attention due to the recent contributions. The six chapters discuss criticality of complex systems, where the new, emergent properties appear via collective behaviour of simple elements. Since all complex systems involve cooperative behaviour between many interconnected components, the field of phase transitions and critical phenomena provides a very natural conceptual and methodological framework for their study.As for the previous volumes, this book is based on the review lectures that were given in Lviv (Ukraine) at the 'Ising lectures' &#x2014; a traditional annual workshop on phase transitions and critical phenomena which aims to bring together scientists working in the field of phase transitions with university students and those who are interested in the topic.The level of presentation makes the book readable both for professionals and the students in the field. On a larger scale, the book may contribute to promoting and deepening studies of phase transitions and critical phenomena.<b>Contents:</b> <ul><li>Nature of the Spin Glass Phase in Finite Dimensional (Ising) Spin Glasses <i>(J J Ruiz-Lorenzo)</i></li><li>Phase Transitions in Fermi Systems <i>(P Jakubczyk)</i></li><li>Geometrical Frustration in Interacting Self-Avoiding Walk Models of Polymers in Dilute Solution <i>(D P Foster)</i></li><li>Two-Dimensional Systems of Elongated Particles: From Diluted to Dense <i>(N I Lebovka and Y Y Tarasevich)</i></li><li>Modeling Tumor Growth: A Simple Individual-Based Model and Its Analysis <i>(Yu Kozitsky and K Pilorz)</i></li><li>Microscopic and Macroscopic Models for Vehicular and Pedestrian Flows <i>(M D Rosini)</i></li></ul><br><b>Readership:</b> Advanced undergraduates and graduate students, researchers and scientists interested in phase transitions and critical phenomena.Condensed Matter Physics;Statistical Physics;Phase Transitions;Criticality;Scaling;Complex Systems0<b>Key Features:</b><ul><li>Providing reviews of the state-of-the-art studies in various areas of phase transition theory and related topics that have currently attracted much attention</li><li>Focuses on the criticality of complex systems</li><li>Presents different aspects of complexity, analyzing systems of non-physical origin and studies the criticality of traditional complex physical objects such as disordered magnets and complex polymers</li></ul>

"'You are sharing the Dark Lord's thoughts and emotions. The Headmaster thinks it inadvisable for this to continue. He wishes me to teach you how to close your mind to the Dark Lord.'" Dark times have come to Hogwarts. After the Dementors' attack on his cousin Dudley, Harry Potter knows that Voldemort will stop at nothing to find him. There are many who deny the Dark Lord's return, but Harry is not alone: a secret order gathers at Grimmauld Place to fight against the Dark forces. Harry must allow Professor Snape to teach him how to protect himself from Voldemort's savage assaults on his mind. But they are growing stronger by the day and Harry is running out of time… Pottermore has now launched the Wizarding World Book Club.

The book is a collection of papers presented at the conference «Russia and Norway: Physical and Symbolic Borders» held in St Petersburg in April 2005 in connection with the opening of the exhibition «Norway – Russia. Neighbours through the ages». In the book different aspects of the history of the Norwegian-Russian border are covered by historians from Moscow, St Petersburg, Arkhangelsk, Copenhagen, Cambridge, Bergen and Tromso. The papers are diverse and refer to different chronological periods. One group of articles deals with problems connected with the medieval border treaties between Norway and Novgorodian Russia, others with the diplomatic history of the border convention of 1826, as well as its effect on ethnic minorities living in the border area. One author addresses the present-day delimitation controversy between Norway and Russia in the Barents Sea. Other articles deal with symbolic borders, for example, barriers in translating Russian literature into Norwegian, and borders between the two cultures, experienced by the Russian emigrants in Norway after the Russian Revolution. And finally, there are articles without explicit references to the concept of borders, where the authors investigate in more general terms different aspects of Norwegian-Russian relations.
