<內容簡介>
The author of this concise, brilliant series of lectures on mathematical methods in quantum mechanics was one of the shining intellects in the field, winning a Nobel prize in 1933 for his pioneering work in the quantum mechanics of the atom. Beyond that, he developed the transformation theory of quantum mechanics (which made it possible to calculate the statistical distribution of certain variables), was one of the major authors of the quantum theory of radiation, codiscovered the Fermi-Dirac statistics, and predicted the existence of the positron.
The four lectures in this book were delivered at Yeshiva University, New York, in 1964. The first, "The Hamiltonian Method," is an introduction to visualizing quantum theory through the use of classical mechanics. The remaining lectures build on that idea. "The Problem of Quantization" shows how one can start with a classical field theory and end up with a quantum field theory. In "Quantization on Curved Surfaces," Dirac examines the possibility of building a relativistic quantum theory on curved surfaces. He deduces that it is not possible, but it should be possible on flat surfaces. In the final lecture, "Quantization on Flat Surfaces," he concludes that "we can set up the basic equations for a quantum theory of the Born-Infeld electrodynamics agreeing with special relativity, but [not] with general relativity." Physics and chemistry students will find this book an invaluable addition to their libraries, as will anyone intrigued by the far-reaching and influential ideas of quantum mechanics.

內容簡介
這位關於量子力學數學方法的簡明而卓越的系列講座的作者,是該領域的傑出智者之一,因其在原子量子力學的開創性工作而於1933年獲得諾貝爾獎。除此之外,他還發展了量子力學的變換理論(使得計算某些變數的統計分佈成為可能),是輻射量子理論的主要作者之一,與人共同發現了費米-狄拉克統計,並預測了正電子的存在。
本書中的四場講座於1964年在紐約的耶希瓦大學進行。第一場講座「哈密頓方法」是通過使用經典力學來視覺化量子理論的介紹。其餘的講座則在此基礎上進行延伸。「量子化問題」展示了如何從經典場論開始,最終得到量子場論。在「曲面上的量子化」中,狄拉克考察了在曲面上建立相對論量子理論的可能性。他推斷這是不可能的,但在平面上應該是可行的。在最後一場講座「平面上的量子化」中,他總結道:「我們可以為符合特殊相對論的Born-Infeld電動力學建立量子理論的基本方程,但與廣義相對論不符。」物理和化學學生會發現這本書是他們圖書館中不可或缺的補充,任何對量子力學深遠而有影響的思想感到好奇的人也會如此。
