Student Analysis Date:  Wednesday, November 09, 2011 Location:  224 Dennison (4:00 PM to 5:00 PM) Title:  Unbounded Operators and Their Importance in the Foundation of Quantum Mechanics. Abstract:   We will look into spectral theorems for bounded and unbounded self adjoint operators on Hilbert Spaces. The results for unbounded operators were developed to meet the needs of a rigorous formulation of quantum mechanics. So we'll also take a look at the foundation of quantum mechanics. You are recommended to attend if you're interested in quantum mechanics but have always wondered at the logical inconsistency of the usual presentation given in physics texts.
