Solid State Textbook for Computational Solid-State Physics?

AI Thread Summary
Graduate students seeking to learn computational solid-state physics are looking for textbooks that cover the subject alongside the time-dependent semiconductor Bloch equations. Recommended texts include "Computational Solid State Physics: An Introduction" by Ronald Melrose and "Computer Simulation of Condensed Phases in Complex Geometries" by Denis Ullmo. Other notable suggestions are "Computational Methods for Electron-Phonon Interactions" by Dario Alfe and "Computational Quantum Mechanics for Materials Engineers" by Kai Nordlund. Additionally, "Computational Solid State Physics: From First Principles to Finite Temperatures" by Giuseppe Senatore and "Introduction to Computational Solid State Physics" by Richard Martin are also mentioned. These resources provide a solid foundation for understanding computational approaches in solid-state physics.

I'm a graduate student and am interested in learning computational solid-state physics.

Ideally, I'd like a textbook which covers solid-state physics and the time-dependent semiconductor Bloch equations from a computational perspective.

Does anybody have any suggestions?

By looking around, it seems like Dr. Hassani's books are great for studying "mathematical methods for the physicist/engineer." One is for the beginner physicist [Mathematical Methods: For Students of Physics and Related Fields] and the other is [Mathematical Physics: A Modern Introduction to Its Foundations] for the advanced undergraduate / grad student. I'm a sophomore undergrad and I have taken up the standard calculus sequence (~3sems) and ODEs. I want to self study ahead in mathematics...
