Quantum Theory I
A graduate-level MIT OpenCourseWare subject covering the first semester of a two-semester quantum mechanics sequence, emphasizing foundational principles over applications. Topics include fundamental concepts of quantum theory, quantum dynamics, composite systems, symmetries in quantum mechanics, and approximation methods such as perturbation theory. The course is built from MIT's actual graduate physics curriculum and includes lecture notes, problem sets, and exams as course materials, following the structure used in MIT's Physics 8.05 subject. There are no video lectures, but the written materials are complete enough to work through the subject independently. As with all MIT OpenCourseWare offerings, the content is free to access with no certificate offered. Suited to students who already have a solid grounding in undergraduate quantum mechanics and linear algebra.
