Course description

The first part of this course covers selected topics in quantum mechanics, such as time-dependent perturbation theory, the path integral formalism and the Berry phase. The second part of the course is an introduction to quantum many-body theory, including second quantization, Green's functions, many-body perturbation theory and Feynman diagrams. Both bosonic and fermionic systems are covered. Applications of the many-body formalism to various condensed matter systems and to dilute atomic gases are discussed.
