If one takes the uncertainty principle as a primitive and the unsolvability of the many-body problem as a given, it seems to me that microscopic irreversibility follows as the source of a quantum second law and the source of the arrow of time.

Physicists have done some good work on figuring out how far to trust computer simulations of the classical gravitational many-body problem.

In applying I had two criteria: the group in question should be a world-class center of excellence in many-body theory, and the environment should be as different as possible from Oxford (where I had by now spent nine years, more than a third of my life).

Roughly speaking, this provides a quantum field theoretical derivation of ordered states in many-body systems described in terms of statistical physics.

And all of this is based on a main idea: The main idea of DFT is to describe an interacting system of fermions via its density and not via its many-body wave function.

Beginning with my experimental studies of magnetic impurities in metals and the Kondo Effect, I learned many-body physics from

Later, in the second half of the century, several theoreticians were rewarded for their work on the theoretical modelling of this complex many-body system: Eugene P. Wigner
