Lecture notes

By the start of the course you will here find lecture notes. TheyWe will follow these lecture notes. Note that they are currently being written and will be updated continuously during the course.

For a recent and solid textbook on the topic (though lacking some of the techniques introduced in the course which are even more recent), consult:Elliot H. Lieb and Robert Seiringer, The Stability of Matter in Quantum Mechanics, Cambridge University Press, 2010. [errata etc]
