Mathematical Tools of Quantum Mechanics
Today quantum mechanics forms an important part of our understanding of physical phenom- ena. Its consequences both at the fundamental and practical levels have intrigued mathemati- cians， physicists， chemists， and even philosophers for the past century. A quantum system is usually described in terms of certain Hilbert spaces H and linear operators acting on these spaces. The mathematical properties and structure of Hilbert spaces are essential for a proper understanding of the formalism of quantum mechanics. For this， we are going to review brie°y the properties of Hilbert spaces and those of linear operators. We will then consider Dirac's bra-ket notation.
Quantum mechanics was formulated in two di.erent ways by Schr.odinger and Heisenberg. Schr.odinger's wave mechanics and Heisenberg's matrix mechanics are the representations of the general formalism of quantum mechanics in continuous and discrete basis systems， respectively.So we will also examine the mathematics involved in representing kets， bras， bra-kets， and operators in discrete and continuous bases.
Certain mathematical topics are essential for quantum mechanics， not only as computational tools， but because they form the most e.ective language in terms of which the theory can be formulated. We deal with the mathematical machinery needed to study quantum mechanics in this chapter. Although it is mathematical in scope， no attempt is made to be mathematically complete or rigorous. We limit ourselves to those practical issues that are relevant to the formalism of quantum mechanics. These topics include the theory of linear vector spaces and linear operators. A uniˉed theory based on that mathematical structure was ˉrst formulated by P. A. M. Dirac， and the formulation used in this book is really a modernized version ofDirac's formalism.
