This practical guidebook provides a comprehensive set of exercises which illustrate the most relevant concepts in a first course on quantum many-body theory either as part of advanced undergraduate or graduate courses. The problems come with detailed solutions which can easily be followed either by both professors and students of the course. Quantum many-body theory is relevant in a number of fields, from condensed matter to astrophysics, therefore problems are varied and illustrated whenever possible with state of the art examples.

Key Features:

• Provides a problems-based approach to quantum many-body theory, unlike existing textbooks.
• In-depth solutions to problems are presented, with the aim to maximize understanding and improve the teaching experience of the subject.
• The multidisciplinary nature of quantum many-body theory is explored in problems that deal with nuclear physics to ultracold atoms and astrophysics.
