Berezin F.A., Shubin M.A. The Schrodinger Equation
Kluwer Academic Publishers ,1991. - 555 p.
The Schrodinger equation is the basic equation of quantum theory. The study of this equation plays an exceptionally important role in mode physics. From a mathematician's point of view the Schrodinger equation is as inexhaustible as mathematics itself.
In this book an attempt has been made to set forth those topics of mathematical physics, associated with the study of the Schr/Sdinger equation, which appear to be the most important.
Intended mainly for students of mathematics, the book starts with an introductory chapter dealing with the basic concepts of quantum mechanics. This would help the reader well versed in mathematics to understand the physical meaning of the mathematical constructions and theorems expounded in the subsequent chapters. One should not think that this concise chapter can serve
as a substitute for a systematic study of physical textbooks on quantum mechanics. It is hoped, however, that the perusal of the book would be sufficient for a mathematician to take in these textbooks.
This book is based on the lectures given more than once by the authors at the Department of Mechanics and Mathematics of the Moscow State University and in part published in 1972. Though the lectures were meant for students of mathematics, the experience with the above mentioned preliminary publication showed that the type of material presented here can also be useful to the physicists who want to familiarize themselves better with the mathematical formalism of quantum mechanics.
