An Introduction to Quantum Theory, Hardback Book

Hardback

Description

This book provides an introduction to quantum theory primarily for students of mathematics.

Although the approach is mainly traditional the discussion exploits ideas of linear algebra, and points out some of the mathematical subtleties of the theory.

Amongst the less traditional topics are Bell's inequalities, coherent and squeezed states, and introductions to group representation theory.

Later chapters discuss relativistic wave equations and elementary particle symmetries from a group theoretical standpoint rather than the customary Lie algebraic approach.

This book is intended for the later years of an undergraduate course or for graduates.

It assumes a knowledge of basic linear algebra and elementary group theory, though for convenience these are also summarized in an appendix.
