Several chapters are then devoted to an introduction to simple lattice field theories and a variety of spin systems with discrete and continuous spins, where the ubiquitous Ising model serves as an ideal guide for introducing the fascinating area of phase transitions. This classic text, first published in 1972, is designed for graduate physics courses in statistical mechanics. RG is also fundamental in statistical mechanics of phase transitions. The biggest intersection between statistical mechanics and traditional theoretical computer science is in looking at phase-transitions in the \mathsf{NP}\mathrm{-complete} problem 3SAT. It deals with highly correlated systems near a critical point, so to say that it works only for problems with no correlations is incorrect. This classic text, first published in 3993, is designed for graduate physics courses in statistical mechanics. But we can also turn it around: “Physics is informational”.

Over the past few decades the powerful methods of statistical physics and Euclidean quantum field theory have moved closer together, with common tools based on the use of path integrals. One way to detect a quantum phase transition is simply to notice that ground state depends very sensitively on the parameters near such a point.
