Lecture 22/23 1 Quantum Mechanics
... We have to be careful when we say any unitary matrix, since there are uncountably infinitely many unitary matrices (you can rotate by any real-number angle, for instance). However, there are small sets of quantum gates that can be used to approximate any unitary matrix to arbitrary precision. As a te ...

Introduction to Quantum Statistical Mechanics
... postulates we list here as P1 to P4. In order to motivate and/or illustrate their meaning, we consider in parallel the typical Hamiltonian (2) to make the link with its quantization by means of the traditional recipe. P1: The phase space Γ is replaced by a Hilbert space H whose scalar product is den ...

The average distance increases with n, and hence quantum states with different principal quantum numbers are said to belong to different shells. The a ...
