Abstract

A brief introduction on the content of the volume with a summary of the main studies in each chapter is reported. The volume covers the physics of iron based superconductors from a theoretical, numerical and computational point of view. It also contains a section dedicated to training, which could be beneficial to researchers approaching the field of unconventional superconductivity. The readers will strongly benefit from the different overviews on the topic of iron based superconductors and multi-orbital systems. It starts from the basic theory of modelling many-body physics in Fe-superconductors to go to the magnetic and Cooper pair fluctuations and nematic order. Lastly, it offers a comprehensive overview of the most recent advances on the role of interactions in iron-based superconductors.
