About The Book
This work offers a comprehensive presentation of both nonrelativistic and relativistic quantum mechanics, focusing on applications such as the hydrogen atom. The author aims to make quantum mechanics accessible to mathematicians and other non-physicists by clearly explaining the genesis of quantum mechanics, its core applications, and the corresponding mathematical methods used.

The exposition is formalized based on key equations like the Schrödinger, Dirac, and Maxwell equations, providing a mathematically rigorous approach while ensuring clarity for readers not exclusively trained in physics. The book serves as an introduction to quantum mechanics for those who wish to understand its formal structure and applications, particularly in regard to basic quantum phenomena.

Target Audience
This book is aimed at upper graduate and graduate students in mathematical and physical science disciplines, as well as those looking to gain a deeper understanding of quantum mechanics in a formalized context. It is particularly suited for readers with a background in mathematics, looking to apply their skills to physical sciences.
