幾本量子理論的書籍
Anyone who claims to understand quantum theory is either lying or crazy.
—— Richard Feynman
(註:之所以會寫這個小文,除了對量子由來已久的興趣外,更多是因為本人的研究方向Random Matrix Theory同量子之間存在很緊密的聯繫,除了早期Eugene Wigner關於energy levels的研究工作外,目前還有Quantum Chaos,Black Holes等,有機會考慮專門寫一篇RMT在QC方面應用的介紹;這裡我所列的定不完全,比如這裡我主要列出的是現代量子方面的人物和工作,關於經典量子物理的代表人物,如Max Planck,Albert Einstein,Niels Bohr等,並未列舉,我也無意於寫任何一個完全指導,僅列舉部分以作參考)
