Condensed Matter Physics: IV Mexican Meeting

The main idea was to get a general insight into two main fields of condensed matter, like that of interacting electrons, transport of classical and quantum waves, and molecular dynamics, as well as an isolated topic like quantum mechanics foundations. Both fields have a lot of progress and the main purpose of the meeting was to open new perspectives for young Mexican scientists in the most relevant fields of physics.
