This course is a two semester graduate course in Quantum Mechanics. The main part of my lecture will be based on the same textbook Modern Quantum Mechanics by J.J. Sakurai (Addison Wesley Publishing Co.). This book is available in the University book store but can also be ordered online. The first lecture will be on Thursday September 4th.
The following is a list of topics to be discussed in this lecture.
| Stern-Gerlach Experiment | Aharonov-Bohm Effect |
| Hilbert Space | Rotations |
| Operator Theory | Angular Momentum and Spin |
| Uncertainty Principle | Clebsch-Gordon Coefficients |
| Schr\"odinger Equation | Wigner-Eckart Theorem |
| Time Evolution | Entangled States |
| Harmonic Oscillator | Bell's Inequalities |
| Hydrogen Atom | Symmetries in Quantum Mechanics |
| Propagators | Wigner's Fundamental Theorem |
| Feynman Path Integrals | Time Reversal Invariance |
| Instantons and Tunneling | Kramer's Degeneracy |
| Landau Orbits | Quantum Chaos |
| Quantum Hall Effect |
