In 2 space dimensions Solve for \(f(x,y,t)\) \[ I \hslash f_t = - \frac {\hslash ^2}{2 m} \nabla ^2 f \] With initial conditions \(f(x,y,0) = \sqrt {2} \left ( \sin (2 \pi x) \sin (\pi y)+ \sin (\pi x) \sin (3 \pi y) \right )\) and boundary conditions \begin {align*} f(0,y,t) &= 0 \\ f(1,y,t) &= 0 \\ f(x,1,t) &= 0 \\ f(x,0,t) &= 0 \end {align*}

pde =  I*h*D[f[x, y,t], t] == -h^2/(2*m)*(D[f[x, y, t], {x, 2}]+D[f[x, y, t], {y, 2}]); 
sol =  AbsoluteTiming[TimeConstrained[DSolve[{pde, bc, ic}, f[x, y, t], {x, y, t}], 60*10]];
 

\[\left \{\left \{f(x,y,t)\to \sqrt {2} e^{-\frac {5 i \pi ^2 h t}{m}} \left (\sin (\pi x) \sin (3 \pi y)+\sin (2 \pi x) \sin (\pi y) e^{\frac {5 i \pi ^2 h t}{2 m}}\right )\right \}\right \}\]
