3 Angular Momentum and Spherical Harmonics For a quantum mechanical system that is able to rotate in 3D, one can always define a set of angular momentum operators J. Jy, J., often collectively written as a vector J. They must satisfy the commutation relations (, ] = ihſ, , Îu] = ihſ, J., ſu] = ihỈy. (1) In a more condensed notation, we may write [1,1]] = Žiheikh, i, j= 1,2,3 k=1 Here we've used the Levi-Civita symbol, defined as...

5. We start with Schrodinger's Equation in 2(x,t) = H¥(x,t). We can write the time derivative as 2.4(x, t) = V(x,+) - (xt), where At is a sufficiently small increment of time. Plug the algebraic form of the derivative into Schrodinger's Eq. and solve for '(x,t+At). b. Put your answer in the form (x,t+At) = T '(x,t). c. What physically does the operator T do to the function '(x,t)? d. Deduce an expression for '(x,t+24t), in terms...

Consider an infinite sequence of positions 1, 2, 3, . . . and suppose we have a stone at position 1 and another stone at position 2. In each step, we choose one of the stones and move it according to the following rule: Say we decide to move the stone at position i; if the other stone is not at any of the positions i + 1, i + 2, . . . , 2i, then it goes to...
