Abstract
For many problems in quantum mechanics it proves to be useful to write the Schrödinger equation as an integral equation rather than as a differential equation. In this paper we describe how the transformation of the Schrödinger equation from differential form to integral form may be accomplished. Two methods are described, one appropriate to bound-state theory and one appropriate to scattering theory. It is shown that the bound-state wave function is also a solution of the integral equation (Lippman-Schwinger equation) appropriate to scattering theory.
