There are some people who are perfect communicators of complex subjects. My calculus teacher, Martha Kasting, was one such person. She would smile the entire time as she described Green’s Theorem, or she would say, “Isn’t that a pretty equation?” Dr. Zwiebach is another.

I love this form of explanation. It is so complete. And I love that the facts and reasoning are explained in a human-centric simple form, where so many others throw a bunch of fact at the screen. Thank you! I will use this information in the most powerful way. I have tried to wrap my head around the supposedly simple idea of linearity for a long time. Somehow this shifted me over my preconceptions.

Why is the Schrodinger equation linear when the Hamiltonian depends on V(x), and earlier he said that V(x) can be arbitrary? The quantum harmonic oscillator is a perfect example of a nonlinear potential and as far as I know you need special techniques like Hermite polynomials to solve it.
@commonlistener872 ай бұрын
Linearity depends on the dynamical variable you’re solving for. In the example the lecturer presents for Newton’s equations, you are solving a second-order differential equation for the “variable” x (which is a function of time). The equation is nonlinear *with respect to x* whenever V’(x) is nonlinear with respect to x. In the case of Schrödinger’s equation, by contrast, you are solving a partial differential equation for psi (the wavefunction), not for x. You’re right that the Hamiltonian has a potential term V that depends on x (often nonlinearly), but V doesn’t depend on psi, and it’s psi that you’re solving for.

5:13 how is Hamiltonian operator linear? Since it also contains potential energy term which need not to be linear.
@zacharythatcher73284 жыл бұрын
Kaushal Jain the potential in the Hamiltonian can be thought of as a set of values that span relevant space (a normal line or surface over space) that the wave function will be multiplied by at every single one of those points individually. So the wave equation (the input) will be transformed in essentially a multiplication style operation. Multiplication is linear, and so is the “potential operator”. If the potential was somehow squaring or logging the wave equation, that would be nonlinear, but that is impossible. The potential isn’t that weird. It just multiplies the wave equation by its own predetermined values, which you could do before or after multiplying by a constant and get the same result.

The difference is previously your solution was in terms of x(t) and the potential depends explicitly on x. Now your solution is in terms of the wave function, of which the potential is not a function. The Hamiltonian is a linear operator on the space where the wave function lives. The potential is not a function of your wave function.

Like if a ball is rolling down a hill, hes basically just saying that because there's mass, gravity would be pulling it down, and it loses potential energy as it gets closer to its destination and force is used. So the force is the negative of the derivative of potential energy.(someone correct me if I'm wrong)

QM(quantum mechanics) is linear? where is the laws of physics that says it is, we dont truly know if QM is linear, but the probability representation of psi or ANYTHING is ALWAYS linear, because we MADE it linear so that it could be solvable, this is the ONLY way we could even TRY to solve for the slightest bit. "it is linear" and "we MADE it linear" are two different things. the initial value problems of non-linear classical mech is the SAME as the boundary problems of linear probability representation in quantum mechanics.
@lepidoptera93372 ай бұрын
It is linear because the quantum mechanical ensemble consists of statistically independent experiments. That's an assumption. Since we do not have an actual ensemble in real life but only the repetition of the same experiment, the statistical independence of the data set that it produces has to be tested. It will usually work out fine for e.g. the photon flux from a thermal light source, but it will show very strong temporal correlations for a laser source. So you are not completely false in saying that "we made it linear", but the naive assumption that every quantum mechanical system obeys that linearity is incorrect.

Notice in the classical equation, m x'''(t)=-V(x'(t)), the potential is a function of the derivative of the position. While the derivative itself is linear, we don't know what the unknown potential function "V" is so we can not say with certainty that V(x'(k*t))=k*V(x'(t)). By contrast, in the Schrodinger equation the potential V is multiplied by the wavefunction psi, so V*k*psi=k*V*psi

The potential function is arbitrary, in most scenarios we approximate it to be harmonic (proportional to x^2) but it can be generally non linear. Alternatively H-hat is the Hamiltonian operator which is basically a constant time the 2nd derivative with respect to position i.e its linear. Its not the Hamiltonian itself, its an operator named after the Hamiltonian.
@mike4ty44 жыл бұрын
The quantum Hamiltonian operator acts on the state variable differently than the potential/kinetic energy (classical Hamiltonian) does in Newtonian mechanics. In particular, "x" in the potential energy function is just a parameter, not the present particle state being plugged into the function like it is in the Newtonian case with Newton's second law or Hamilton's equations, because in quantum mechanics position, momentum, etc. are not actually numbers, but "fuzzy" quantities described by probability distributions (which corresponds to reduced information, as per Shannon), and they are all wrapped up in the linear state vector, |psi>. That state vector is not a real number, but (effectively) an infinite number of them, and hence could not be inserted into the potential energy function anyways, which is expecting only one real number as input. Instead, the potential energy function _becomes_ an operator on the state vector by first considering it in the form of the positional wave function psi_x(x), which is a "basis expansion" (effectively the same thing as vector components of ordinary vectors, but with infinitely many components) and then you multiply this wave function by the potential energy function to get another wave function (i.e. form psi'_x(x) = U(x) psi_x(x)), which then represents, by going backwards through that expansion, the resulting new state vector. Since multiplication is distributive, hence linear, you get a linear action of this operator.
