The objective of the meeting was to promote the formation of young scientists by means of training through research. These features are reflected in the book: the pedagogical lectures are up-to-date monographs of relevant subjects in the field of condensed matter physics. Contributions include: polarons (the polaron concept, optical properties and internal structure of polarons, many-polaron systems, magnetoabsorption of polarons, optical properties of quantum dots: role of the polaron interaction, interacting polarons in a quantum dot, small polarons); multielectron bubbles in liquid helium: a spherical two-dimensional electron system (oscillation modes, bubble stability and fissioning, the spherical two-dimensional electron gas, the Wigner solid of electrons in the bubble); the numerical approach to the correlated electron problem: quantum Monte Carlo methods (the world line approach for the XXZ model and relation to the 6-vertex model, auxiliary field Quantum Monte Carlo algorithms, application of the auxiliary field QMC to specific Hamiltonians, the Hirsch-Fye impurity algorithm); basic models in the quantum theory of magnetism (the Heisenberg model, the Hubbard model, and the sd-model).

This book contains lectures on strongly correlated electron systems presented by eminent physicists. These lectures are up-to-date summaries of relevant subjects in the field of condensed matter physics intended to train students. Contributions include: Strongly correlated electron behaviors and heavy Fermions in anomalous rare-earth and actinide systems; strong correlations in low dimensional systems; functional renormalization group approach to correlated electron systems; and numerical approaches to coupled quantum systems.

This volume contains the lectures delivered at the Fourth Training Course in the Physics of Correlated Electron Systems and High-Tc Superconductors. In contrast to usual workshops, this course was designed to promote active participation of senior and young researchers and to introduce them to some specific problems. Three of the four lectures held are included in this book.

The papers were peer reviewed by a local panel. The objective of the meeting was to promote the progress of young scientists by means of training through research. The lectures are up-to-date monographs of relevant subjects in the field of condensed matter physics. Contributions include the following lectures: Electron-Phonon Interaction and Strong Correlations in High-Temperature Superconductors: One cannot avoid the unavoidable (The properties of the normal state and pairing mechanism in high-Tc superconductors, Forward scattering peak in the EPI, The FSP theory, The ARPES non-shift puzzle, Interesting predictions of the FSP theory); Strongly Correlated Electron Materials: Dynamical Mean-Field Theory and Electronic Structure (The basic principles of dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT), application of DMFT to the Mott transition, compare to recent spectroscopy, transport experiments; the key role of the quasiparticle coherence scale, transfers of spectral weight between low- and intermediate or high energies is emphasized); Monte Carlo Simulations of Quantum Systems with Global Updates (a model for doped antiferromagnets, first application of the hybrid loop algorithm, namely the t-Jmodel with 1/r2 interaction).

This book first introduces a single polaron and describes recent achievements in analytical and numerical studies of polaron properties in different e-ph models. It then describes multi-polaron physics as well as many key physical properties of high-temperature superconductors, colossal magnetoresistance oxides, conducting polymers and molecular nanowires, which were understood with polarons and bipolarons.
