AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around finding a suitable quantum mechanics book tailored for mathematicians, comparable to well-regarded texts like Arnold's for Classical Mechanics or Wald's for General Relativity. The original poster expresses difficulty in locating a resource that explicitly addresses quantum mechanics from a mathematical perspective. Participants in the thread suggest exploring various titles that bridge the gap between mathematics and quantum theory, emphasizing the need for a rigorous approach that aligns with the mathematical standards sought by the inquirer. The conversation highlights the importance of clarity and depth in understanding quantum concepts through a mathematical lens.

I hope this hasn't been asked before. I searched for it, but did not find it. And I haven't really found anything that explicitly is a Quantum book for mathematicians on the web. But it's probably right under my nose.

My question then is what is a good Quantum book for mathematicians? Something along the standards of Arnold for Classical Mechanics or Wald for General Relativity.

Thanks.

TL;DR Summary: Book after Sakurai Modern Quantum Physics I am doing a comprehensive reading of sakurai and I have solved every problem from chapters I finished on my own, I will finish the book within 2 weeks and I want to delve into qft and other particle physics related topics, not from summaries but comprehensive books, I will start a graduate program related to cern in 3 months, I alreadily knew some qft but now I want to do it, hence do a good book with good problems in it first...
