Kvantmekanik III (HT 2011)
Welcome to the homepage of the exercise sessions! The course homepage can be found here!
The course book is (the second edition of) "Modern Quantum Mechanics" by J.J.Sakurai and J.Napolitano. In case you are using the old book, see this pdf file for a table that translates the numbers of the problems discussed in the exercise sessions.
On this page you will find a list of the problems that we have solved or are going to solve during the exercise sessions, including some solutions.
If you have questions about the course or need any help with the exercises, write me an e-mail (angnis.schmidt-may@fysik.su.se) or visit me in my office, room A5:1051 at AlbaNova.
Notes
I have written some notes on the formal definitions of vector spaces, dual spaces, etc., and their application in quantum mechanics:
If you are interested: During the summer term 2010 I gave a tutorial on Quantum Mechanics at the University of Heidelberg and wrote some notes on path integrals for my students:
Problems
It is highly recommended to have a look at the problems before you come to the exercise sessions. The problems to be discussed will successively be listed here, including a hint where to find the solutions. If there are no solutions available, I will try to provide them as soon as possible. Nonetheless, if you take this course seriously you should first try to solve the problems yourself.- Wednesday 11/9
We have solved problems 1.4), 1.12)a), and 1.33) during the first exercise session. Solutions to 1.12)a) and 1.33) can be found in the manual by Saltsidis and Brinne, and I have written down the solutions to problem 1.4).

- Monday 12/5
We solved problems 2.39), 3.13), and also discussed exercise sheet II. Solutions to 2.39) and 3.13) are in the manual by Saltsidis and Brinne.
- Wednesday 12/7
We have discussed problems 3.15) and 3.24). The manual by Saltsidis and Brinne has solutions to 3.24) and I wrote notes on problem 3.15).
- Monday 12/14, 10.15 am
I would like to solve problems 4.8) and 5.1). Furthermore, there will be a surprise exercise which is not found in textbooks! There are solutions to 4.8) in the manual by Saltsidis and Brinne.
- Monday 12/14, 1.15 pm
We are going to look at old exams!
We discussed problems 2.1), 2.3) and 2.9). Solutions to 2.1) are provided in the manual by Saltsidis and Brinne, and I have notes on problem 2.3) as well as on problem 2.9)
We have gone through problems 2.19)a) and b) as well as 2.38). The manual by Saltsidis and Brinne contains solutions to 2.19) and I have written solutions to problem 2.38). Note that I have put up a pdf file that translates the numbers of the problems to those in the previous edition of the book.
