• (1984)
A unified theory of effective interaction, elementary excitations, transport properties, and possible superfluidity of 3He-4He mixtures has been developed. The basic approach is patterned after that of Aldrich and Pines ...

In this thesis I study two separate topics in many-body physics. In the first part I consider many-body effects in the thermodynamic properties of Fermi liquids and of the electron-phonon system. Using normal liquid ...

We cast the well-known electron gas model into a path integral version, then studied its dynamic structure factor S(q,q0 ) systematically. Our study shows that qc defined in RPA not only is the threshold for a bare ...
