At the QMath9 meeting, young scientists learn about the state of the art in the mathematical physics of quantum systems. Based on that event, this book offers a selection of outstanding articles written in pedagogical style comprising six sections which cover new techniques and recent results on spectral theory, statistical mechanics, Bose-Einstein condensation, random operators, magnetic Schrödinger operators and much more. For postgraduate students,
Mathematical Physics of Quantum Systems
serves as a useful introduction to the research literature. For more expert researchers, this book will be a concise and modern source of reference.
