ADVANCED QUANTUM MECHANICS

This course assumes that the basics of quantum mechanics have been covered in prior lectures. For instance, chapters 1,2,3 of the book by Griffiths are considered a prerequisite.
The program of the course is detailed in this page. Below the chapter titles:

Chapter 1 States, measurements, information
Chapter 2 Symmetries in quantum mechanics
Chapter 3 Path integral formulation of quantum mechanics
Chapter 4 Angular momentum and spin
Chapter 5 Particle in a central force field
Chapter 6 Approximation methods
Chapter 7 Systems of identical particles

The advanced quantum mechanics course is given by Frédéric Van Wijland and Michael Joyce.



Frédéric van Wijland's research works lie at the crossroads of statistical mechanics and field-theoretic methods, with a view to describing the emergent collective behavior of nonequilibrium systems.
