Homogeneous Boltzmann Equation in Quantum Relativistic Kinetic Theoryby M. Escobedo, S. Mischler, M.A. Valle - American Mathematical Society
We consider some mathematical questions about Boltzmann equations for quantum particles, relativistic or non relativistic. Relevant cases such as Bose, Bose-Fermi, and photon-electron gases are studied. We also consider some simplifications ...

Statistical Physicsby Michael Cross - Caltech
The author discusses using statistical mechanics to understand real systems, rather than ideal systems that can be solved exactly. In addition dynamics and fluctuations are considered. These notes are an attempt to summarize the main points.

Statistical Field Theoryby H.T.C. Stoof - Utrecht University
We give a self-contained introduction to the quantum field theory for many-particle systems, using functional methods throughout. We focus in general on the behavior of so-called quantum liquids, i.e., quantum gases and liquids.
