Summary Note	Preface : This graduate-level text collects and synthesizes ten series of lectures on the nuclear quantum many-body problem—starting from our present understanding of the underlying forces with a presentation of r ecent advances within the field of lattice quantum chromodynamics via effective field theories to central many-body methods like Monte Carlo methods, coupled cluster theories, the similarity renormaliza-tion group approach, Green’s function methods, and large-scale diagonalization approaches. In particular algorithmic and computational advances show promise for break- throughs in predictive power including proper error estimates and a better understanding of the underlying effective degrees of freedom and of the respective forces at play. Enabled by recent advances in theoretical, experimental, and numerical techniques, the modern and state-of-the art applications considered in this volume span the entire range from our smallest components, quarks and gluons, as the mediators of the strong force to the computation of the equation of state for neutron star matter. The present lectures provide a proper exposition of the underlying theoretical and algorithmic approaches as well as strong ties to the numerical implementation of the exposed methods. Several of the lectures provide links to actual numerical software and benchmark calculations, allowing eventual readers, based upon the available material, to develop their own programs for tackling challenging nuclear many-body problems.:
