Phase Transitions and Renormalization Group - Lectures 3 and 4: Breakdown of Landau Theory and 1D Ising Model
Raman Research Institute via YouTube
Overview
Learn about phase transitions and renormalization group theory through two comprehensive lectures that explore the breakdown of Landau Theory and provide a warm-up introduction to the 1D Ising Model, decimation, and flows. Delve into advanced physics concepts as presented at the 4th Vignayana Patashala by the Raman Research Institute. Examine the limitations and failure points of Landau Theory before transitioning into practical applications with the one-dimensional Ising Model, understanding decimation processes, and analyzing flow patterns in physical systems.
