Hagen KleinertHagen Kleinert is the Professor of Theoretical Physics at the Free University of Berlin, Germany, Honorary Member of the Russian Academy of Creative Endeavors. Professor Kleinert has written numerous papers on mathematical physics and the physics of elementary particles, nuclei, solid state, liquid crystals, biomembranes, microemulsions, polymers, and theory of financial markets. He has written several books in the field of physics. His most notable book Path Integrals in Quantum Mechanics, Statistics and Polymer Physics has been published in four editions since 1990 with the latest two editions including chapters on the application of path integrals in financial markets. As a young professor in 1972, Kleinert visited Caltech and was impressed by noted US physicist Richard Feynman. He discovered how to use Feynman's path integrals to solve the hydrogen atom (see here and here!) ; this work greatly extended the applicable range of Feynman's techniques. Later, Kleinert was to collaborate with Feynman in some of the latter's last work (anectotes here). Professor Kleinert is a senior member of the faculty for the International Relativistic Astrophysics Ph.D Project or IRAP project. He is also involved in the European Science Foundation's Cosmology in the Laboratory project. Books - Gauge Fields in Condensed Matter, Vol. I, " SUPERFLOW AND VORTEX LINES", pp. 1--742, Vol. II, "STRESSES AND DEFECTS", pp. 743-1456, World Scientific (Singapore, 1989); Paperback ISBN 9971-50-210-0 (also available online: Vol. I and Vol. II)
