Course Aims | ||||||||||
This course aims to equip graduate students with
advanced knowledges of quantum mechanics that are necessary to conduct research
and understand literature. The course shall start with
the Schrödinger, Heisenberg and the interaction picture, then covers
the perturbation theory and scattering theory,
the fundamental theories dealing with interacting problems. After
that students shall learn about identical particles, spins and second
quantization. At last, there will be an introduction on applications of quantum
mechanics to modern many-body physics. | ||||||||||
