Explaining the concepts of quantum mechanics and quantum field theory in a precise mathematical language, this textbook is an ideal introduction for graduate students in mathematics, helping to prepare them for further studies in quantum physics. The textbook covers topics that are central to quantum physics: non-relativistic quantum mechanics, quantum statistical mechanics, relativistic quantum mechanics and quantum field theory. There is also background material on analysis, classical mechanics, relativity and probability. Each topic is explored through a statement of basic principles followed by simple examples. Around 100 problems throughout the textbook help readers develop their understanding.
"This is a thought-provoking book. Mirman is a crusader for the advancement of a no-nonsense approach to physics. He does not request your complete agreement, but your willingness to think, which is...
This textbook on relativistic quantum mechanics and quantum field theory is divided into two parts. The first part includes a detailed discussion on the discrete transformations for the Dirac...
over this stochastic space-time leads to the non local fields considered by G. V. Efimov. In other words, stochasticity of space-time (after being averaged on a large scale) as a self-memory makes...
