i need to a buk that explains linear vector space with respect to quantum mechanical concepts...most buk have just a short review or something..i need to understand it and how it is related to qm...
thanks a lot

Then it sounds to me like you want a "Linear Algebra" text, not a physics text.

On the other hand, it also sounds like you want some applications along with it. Try
"Linear Algebra and its Applications" by David Lay, Pearson Education, publishers, ISBN 0321385179.
 
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!
