Schwarz Inequality

Thursday, April 23rd, 2009

// –>

Schwarz Inequality, also known as Cauchy–Schwarz inequality, Cauchy inequality, or the Cauchy–Schwarz–Bunyakovsky inequality, is useful in many Mathematical fields such as Linear Algebra. This Inequality was formulated by Augustin Cauchy (1821), Viktor Yakovlevich Bunyakovsky (1859) and Hermann Amandus Schwarz (1888).
The uncertainty principle of quantum mechanics, which relates the incompatibility of two operators, rests on [...]

Perturbation Theory: Quantum Oscillator Problem

Monday, April 20th, 2009

by ANCELIE C. ROSALES

// –>

In quantum mechanics, the perturbation theory is a very important mathematical tool which is used to approximate physical quantities that describe complicated quantum systems based on our knowledge on the simpler ones. It tells us how to correct the solutions to the unperturbed or undisturbed problem to approximately account for the [...]

Properties of Quantum Oscillators 1

Friday, April 3rd, 2009

by SIMON JUDE BURGOS

In this post we investigate the properties of a quantum oscillator by using an algebraic tool in quantum mechanics called ‘ladder operators’. Using the ladder operator it becomes easy to find the following properties for a quantum oscillator in a given energy level:  the average position and momentum and the square of [...]
