Effective Field Theory in Condensed Matter Physics
Abstract
Some personal reminiscences are followed by a brief illustration of how effective field theories are used in condensed matter physics. Examples include Landau's Fermi liquid, sigma models with topological terms, Dirac fermions and the Gross Neveu model.
