Abstract
This chapter is the closest in these notes to what is usually called “Quantum Mechanics”. The present version is considerably shorter than the original French. It thus becomes more obvious that its main topic is not really elementary quantum mechanics, but rather elementary Fock space, and the quantum analogue of finite dimensional Gaussian random variables.
