About this title

Synopsis:

Starting with a simple quantum theory postulate, this text introduces mathematical techniques that help answer questions important to physical theory. The entire book is devoted to study of a particle moving in a straight line; students develop mathematical techniques by answering questions about the particle. 1981 edition.

Synopsis:

This advanced undergraduate and graduate text introduces the power of operator theory as a tool in the study of quantum mechanics, assuming only a working knowledge of advanced calculus and no background in physics. The entire book is devoted to the study of a single particle moving along a straight line. By posing questions about the particle, the
