Seminar on Foundations of Quantum Mechanics

Summer semester 2020

• Language of presentations: English or German
• Studiengänge: This seminar is offered primarily for the master's program in mathematical physics but is open to all study programs.
• Prerequisites: This seminar extends the course "Foundations of Quantum Mechanics" that I taught in the Wintersemester 2019/20 but is not restricted to students who attended that course. Others need basic knowledge in quantum mechanics, analysis, linear algebra, and probability theory.
• Talks: 90 minutes, one talk per week
• List of talks:
