AQM Assignment 0

The document outlines a series of advanced quantum mechanics problems and assignments, including finding commutation relations, computing Hamiltonians, and deriving dispersion relations. It also tasks the reader with writing expressions for velocities, energy in a one-dimensional box, and degenerate wavefunctions in a two-dimensional box. Additionally, it covers the Heisenberg equation of motion, Pauli matrices, and expectation values in terms of density matrices.
