The contents survey the achievements and research problems connected with an adequate description of condensed matter structure, its phases and other properties in terms of appropriate mathematical tools. The focus is on the following topics: Action of groups on sets and broken symmetries; Racah-Wigner approach to vibrations, electronic states, correlations and superconductivity in multicenter systems; crystallography and its extension.
This volume reviews some selected problems in solid state physics with an emphasis on adequate mathematical tools. The three main subjects are magnetic structures and neutron scattering; Berry phases and energy bands in solids (symmetry, analicity, Hofstadter butterfly, van Hove singularities); and quasicrystals, finite systems, and group action on sets (unitary group approach, Schur functions). Software presentations are included as a separate part.

An introduction to the field of quantum groups, including topology and statistical mechanics, based on lectures given at the Sackler Institute for Advanced Studies at Tel-Aviv University. Detailed proofs of the main results are presented and the bibliography contains more than 1260 references.
This book covers the two broad areas of applications of group theory, namely, all atomic and molecular phenomena, as well as all aspects of nuclear structure and elementary particle theory. It contains five chapters and begins with the representation and tensor operators of the unitary groups. The next chapter describes wave equations, both Schrödinger's and Dirac's for a wide variety of potentials. These topics are followed by discussions of the applications of dynamical groups in dealing with bound-state problems of atomic and molecular physics. A chapter explores the connection between the physical constants of motion and the unitary group of the Hamiltonian, the symmetry adaptation with respect to arbitrary finite groups, and the Dixon method for computing irreducible characters without the occurrence of numerical errors. The last chapter deals with the study of the extension, representation, and applications of Galilei group. This book will prove useful to mathematicians, practicing engineers, and physicists.
Vol. 1-25 include articles in mathematics, published later as a separate series: Ser. A. Mathematics.
