Numerical Methods in Quantum Mechanics

The aim of these lecture notes is to provide an introduction to methods and techniques used in the numerical solution of simple (non-relativistic) quantum-mechanical problems, with special emphasis on atomic and condensed-matter physics. The practical sessions are meant to be a sort of \computational laboratory", introducing the basic ingredients used in the calculation of materials properties at a much larger scale. The latter is a very important eld of today's computational physics, due to its technological interest and potential applications. The codes provided during the course are little
