I’ve posted a fourth (pre-exam) update of my aggregate notes for PHY1520H Graduate Quantum Mechanics, taught by Prof. Arun Paramekanti. In addition to what was noted previously, this contains the remainder of my lecture notes, more problem set solutions (not posted separately), and additional worked practice problems.
Most of the content was posted individually in the following locations, but those original documents will not be maintained individually any further.
