Excluded volume effects in polymer solutions, as explained by the renormalization group /

Schäfer gives a concise overview of the static equilibrium properties of polymer solutions. In the first part diagrammatic perturbation theory is derived from scratch. The second part illustrates the basic ideas of the renormalization group. The crucial role of dilation invariance is stressed. The m...
