by Matthias Blau
2006
Number of pages: 55
Description:
These are notes for part of a course on advanced quantum mechanics given to 4th year physics students. The only prerequisites, however, are a basic knowledge of the Schroedinger and Heisenberg pictures of standard quantum mechanics.

Path Integrals in Quantum Theories: A Pedagogic First Stepby Robert D. Klauber - QuantumFieldTheory.info
It is far easier for students to learn QFT first by the canonical quantization method, and then move on to the path integral approach. This text will help such students, as well as those who are forced to begin their study of QFT via path integrals.
