abstract
In this pedagogical introduction, I discuss theoretical aspects of superfluidity and superconductivity, mostly using a field-theoretical formalism. While the emphasis is on general concepts and mechanisms behind superfluidity, I also discuss various applications in low-energy and high-energy physics. Besides some introductory and standard topics such as superfluid helium and superfluidity in a simple scalar field theory, the lecture notes also include more advanced chapters, for instance discussions of the covariant two-fluid formalism and Cooper pairing with mismatched Fermi surfaces.
