Alexei Mikhaylovich Tsvelik (Russian: Алексей Михайлович Цвелик) is a theoretical condensed matter physicist working on strongly correlated electron systems. He is widely recognised for his pioneering contributions to the theory of low-dimensional systems, including applications of non-perturbative quantum field theory methods and the Bethe Ansatz.
