Statistical Field Theory: Strong Coupling, Monte Carlo Methods, Conformal Field Theory, and Random SystemsThe second volume covers diverse topics, including strong coupling expansions and their analysis, Monte Carlo simulations, two dimensional conformal field theory, and simple disordered systems. The book concludes with a chapter on random geometry and the Polyakov model of random surfaces, which illustrates the relations between string theory and statistical physics.
