Divided into two parts, the first half of this text covers all of the topics required for a complete understanding of the applications of group theory to solid state physics. It shows how symmetry arguments can be used to give detailed insight into the physical properties of crystals closely linked with structure.The second half of the book distinguishes it from other books on this subject by its treatment of symmetry properties of magnetic crystals at a level suitable for graduate students new to the field.

These lecture notes constitute a course on a number of central concepts of solid state physics ? classification of solids, band theory, the developments in one-electron band theory in the presence of perturbation, effective Hamiltonian theory, elementary excitations and the various types of collective elementary excitation (excitons, spin waves and phonons), the Fermi liquid, ferromagnetic spin waves, antiferromagnetic spin waves and the theory of broken symmetry.The book can be used in conjunction with a survey course in solid state physics, or as the basis of a first graduate-level course. It can be read by anyone who has had basic grounding in quantum mechanics.
