Problems and Solutions for Bose, Spin and Fermi Systems by

The purpose of this book is to supply a collection of problems and solutions for Bose, spin and Fermi systems as well as coupled systems. So it covers essential parts of quantum theory and quantum field theory. For most of the problems the detailed solutions are provided which will prove to be valuable to graduate students as well as to research workers in these fields. Each chapter contains supplementary problems often with the solution provided. All the important concepts are provided either in the introduction or the problem and all relevant definitions are given. The topics range in difficulty from elementary to advanced. Almost all problems are solved in detail and most of the problems are self-contained. Students can learn important principles and strategies required for problem solving. Teachers will also find this text useful as a supplement, since important concepts and techniques are developed in the problems. The book can also be used as a text or a supplement for quantum theory, Hilbert space theory and linear and multilinear algebra or matrix theory. Computer algebra programs in Symbol-icC++ and Maxima are also included. For Bose systems number states, coherent states and squeezed states are covered. Applications to nonlinear dynamical systems and linear optics are given. The spin chapter concentrates mostly on spin- 12 and spin-1 systems, but also highe
