Hello,
In quantum mechanics I often come across with some very complicated integrals which I need to calculate in an analytic methods (For ex. symmetric and antisymmetric functions , Gaussians ,etc.)
Do you know where I can find a summery of those techniques?
thanks

Most of the fancy integrals in QM are solved using the residue theorem from complex analysis.
 
Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. Towards the end of the first lecture for the Qiskit Global Summer School 2025, Foundations of Quantum Mechanics, Olivia Lanes (Global Lead, Content and Education IBM) stated...

If we release an electron around a positively charged sphere, the initial state of electron is a linear combination of Hydrogen-like states. According to quantum mechanics, evolution of time would not change this initial state because the potential is time independent. However, classically we expect the electron to collide with the sphere. So, it seems that the quantum and classics predict different behaviours!
