About this title

Synopsis:

This graduate-level textbook on quantum theory covers important recent developments and most aspects of the theory with detailed presentations. It is also a reference and research work which provides background for research in this discipline. In addition to traditional topics, coverage includes: Wigner's Theorem of symmetry transformations, Bose-Fermi oscillators, coherent states, the non-relativistic Lamb shift, Ramsey oscillatory fields methods, the AB effect, Schrödinger's cat and quantum decoherence, quantum teleportation and cryptography, quantum dynamics of the Stern-Gerlach effect.

Review:

From the reviews:

"This book is a modern textbook covering most aspects of the theory and recent developments. The topics included in this book are useful either to graduate students in physics or researchers in this discipline and in the related fields as well. ... The book contains a lot of problems at the end of each Chapter that should be attempted by every serious reader. The book, unquestionably attractive to all those interested in Quantum Theory, is an invaluable source of material for this field." (Marian Ioan Munteanu, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1126 (3), 2008)

"The content is comprehensive and the exposition is clear, albeit at a high level. There is a substantial amount of material that I have not seen covered -or covered in this depth- in other graduate level books: for example, the author's treatment of relativistic quantum equations of motion, the spin-statistics connection, the extensive discussion of the BCH relations, and more. Overall excellent." (M.P. Silverman, Trinity College, Hartford, CT, USA)
