Summary

The aim of the subject is to analyze from the fermionic and bosonic contributions, i.e. a bridge between the electronic sructure and the final material properties.
Here the time scale and finite temperatures is involved as more complex procedures like atomic vibrations, magnetic excitations, superconductivity states, the effect of the localized or itinerant behavior of the electrons need to be determined and its effect on the required material property or novel phenomena in solid sdtate physics.
