A new version of the solutions to Quantum Mechanics and Path Integrals has been released. Unlike the previous two versions, where each update completed approximately two chapters' worth of exercises, this update only adds 22 exercises from Chapter 6 (out of a total of 29 in Chapter 6). There are many reasons for this—being busy notwithstanding—the main reason is that starting from Chapter 6, the problems become increasingly complex and the volume of calculations grows. Although I am from the mathematics department, progress has been arduous. Furthermore, while Chapters 4 and 5 combined have only 25 exercises, Chapter 6 alone contains 29. Therefore, the workload for this update is significantly greater than that of the previous two updates.
Why are there only 22 problems? Naturally, because I haven't finished them all yet. Why release the update before finishing? Because I feel that the subsequent problems are more closely related to Chapter 7. To prevent readers from waiting too long, the remaining problems will be released together with Chapter 7.
Additionally, I have been working through the problems using the Chinese edition. While the translation quality of the Chinese version is decent, there are some inaccuracies in the finer details. Consequently, I had to repeatedly cross-reference the Chinese and English versions, which was quite exhausting. Readers will notice that the "Errata" section has increased significantly in this version.
