Quantum Statistical Mechanics: Selected Works Of N N Bogolubov

by Nickolai N Bogolubov Jr ...

In this book we have solved the complicated problem of constructing upper bounds for many-time averages for the case of a fairly broad class of model systems with four-fermion interaction. The methods proposed in this book for solving this problem will undoubtedly find application not only for the model systems associated with the theory of superconductivity considered here.
