This course will discuss various theoretical topics of non-relativistic quantum mechanics at the graduate level. The quantum mechanics of many-body systems will also be introduced. Topics covered include: operator methods in quantum mechanics, addition of angular momenta, variational method, perturbation theory, scattering theory, and introduction to the quantum theory of many-body systems. Prerequisite: permission of the instructor.
