Concisely and clearly written, this book provides a self-contained introduction to the basic concepts of fractals and demonstrates their use in a range of topics in condensed matter physics and statistical mechanics. The first part outlines different fractal structures observed in condensed matter. The main part of the book is dedicated to the dynamical behaviour of fractal structures, including anomalous and percolating systems. The concept of multifractals is illustrated for the metal-insulator quantum phase transition. The authors emphasize the unified description of these different dynamic problems, thus making the book accessible to readers who are new to the field.

Tsuneyoshi Nakayamagraduated from Hokkaido University in Japan in 1973. He is a professor of Theoretical Condensed Matter Physics in Department of Applied Physics in Hokkaido University from 1986. During this period he stayed Max-Planck Institute, University of Monpellier, University of Cambridge, and The University of Tokyo. He is the co-author of the book "Fractal concepts of condensed matter." Hiroyuki Shimaobtained Ph.D from Hokkaido University. He is currently pursuing his studies, with a special interest in critical phenomena in disordered systems and many-body problems in complex systems. He has had a considerable amount of experience in teaching mathematics and physics to undergraduate and graduate students.
