Good introduction to many-body Green's function via path integral formulation?

3371 views

Can anyone kindly provide any information on valuable references or books on this topic? It appears to be prevalent in 90s papers on High-Tc superconductivity or quantum Hall effect, especially in a form of fermions interacting with U(1) gauge field.

I remember Fadeev having an excellent book on this, but when I search, I found Popov's book on this (which also looks good, but not what I remember). To formulate Fermions interacting with electromagnetism, just replace the derivative with the covariant derivative in the Schrodinger field.
