Winter 2019:
PHYS 660: Quantum Condensed Matter
A course dedicated to the characterization of many-body phases of interacting Fermionic systems. Covers (broadly) Landau Fermi liquid theory, electron gas in Hartree-Fock approximation, Random Phase Approximation, quantum magnetism including Heisenberg magnets, magnetism in the Hubbard model, Anderson's model of localized moments, Kondo physics, one-dimensional quantum liquids, and the basics of superconductivity, from BCS theory to unconventional superconductivity in the Hubbard model, macroscopic properties and some applications of superconductors.

Winter 2020:
PHYS 457: Honors Quantum Physics II
Second part of the quantum physics course for Honors students. Covers bound state solutions to Schrodinger's equation in central potentials, the Hydrogen atom, quantum spin and orbital angular momentum, additional of angular momenta, relativistic corrections to the Hydrogen atom, degenerate and non-degenerate perturbation theory, role of symmetries in quantum mechanics, time-dependent perturbation theory and Fermi's golden rule, many-body quantum systems, Slater determinant and Hartree-Fock theory, quantization of the electromagnetic field
