Sales: Efficient & Engaging Communication
A distributor-based business benefits from having many organizations actively selling its products based on geographic location or market focus. This helps scale the business and create predictable revenue streams for manufacturers.
Getting the most out of these distributor relationships requires proactive engagement and management. Unfortunately, this often is where inefficiency, miscommunication and poor collaboration enter the picture.
Four ways manufacturers can maximize distributor performance

Water Efficiency: A Tale of Two Droughts
We have all heard of, if not studied, the famous book, A Tale of Two Cities, by Charles Dickens. The book deals with several critical social issues in Paris and London in the late 1700s and by some accounts is the No. 1 best-seller of all time. Although what we discuss here will not become as famous as the Dickens book, it will address some pressing issues that are being examined closely in California and around the world. It is the story of two California droughts, one in the late 1970s—considered the worst in the state's history—and one that began around 2012.
Water efficiency strategies help California weather its ongoing drought
Training: The Value of Education
A water treatment equipment manufacturer's best assets are its dealers. They choose to do business with the manufacturer, so it should be committed to earning their trust on a daily basis. As a result of their continued partnership and hard work, their experience working with the manufacturer should be rewarding and meaningful. Therefore, it is the manufacturer's responsibility to provide the tools they need to run successful businesses in their markets.
Manufacturer's training program helps dealers develop skills
Sales: Maximizing a Distributor Sales Model
Choosing to sell your products through manufacturers' representatives and distributors is expensive and requires a lot of time, but, if done correctly, can yield significant revenue growth and profits.
In reality, doing this correctly often is complex. The responsibility is on the manufacturer to establish, build and manage these relationships on an ongoing basis. Constant communication and collaboration are critical for maximizing results.
A five-step approach to ensuring your distributors succeed
Sales: They Won't Call Me Back
You had the appointment and it went really well. You narrowed down the customers' needs and felt like you were open and honest with each other. You really felt that you had a great rapport with them.
How to handle non-responsive prospective clients
Foundation Finance Launches Mobile Training App
Kwik-Coach allows the company's dealers to access FAQs, videos, how-to guides, funding tips & webinar signup information
Foundation Finance Co. has launched its first mobile application, Kwik-Coach, for dealers to use as a training resource. The mobile application features answers to frequently asked questions, training videos, how-to guides, credit and funding tips and webinar signup information.
Kwik-Coach is a fast and easy way for Foundation Finance dealers to get answers to all of their financing questions.
"We're always looking for ways to make financing as simple as possible for our dealers," said Amanda Spence, Foundation Finance marketing program manager.
Sales: Planning for Motivation
In a perfect world, distributors and independent sales representatives would be motivated to sell a manufacturer's products and go above and beyond to exceed their revenue expectations. In reality, competing priorities, lack of product understanding, or just plain "out of sight, out of mind" challenges can impact the results from a distributor network.
Shared plans can help manufacturers & distributors meet goals

Wave function
A wave function in quantum mechanics is a description of the quantum state of a system. The wave function is a complex-valued probability amplitude, and the probabilities for the possible results of measurements made on the system can be derived from it. The most common symbols for a wave function are the Greek letters ψ or Ψ (lower-case and capital psi).
The wave function is a function of the degrees of freedom corresponding to some maximal set of commuting observables. Once such a representation is chosen, the wave function can be derived from the quantum state.
For a given system, the choice of which commuting degrees of freedom to use is not unique, and correspondingly the domain of the wave function is not unique. For instance it may be taken to be a function of all the position coordinates of the particles over position space, or the momenta of all the particles over momentum space, the two are related by a Fourier transform. Some particles, like electrons and photons, have nonzero spin, and the wave function for such particles includes spin as an intrinsic, discrete degree of freedom. Other discrete variables can also be included, such as isospin. When a system has internal degrees of freedom, the wave function at each point in the continuous degrees of freedom (e.g. a point in space) assigns a complex number for each possible value of the discrete degrees of freedom (e.g. z-component of spin). These values are often displayed in a column matrix (e.g. a 2 × 1 column vector for a non-relativistic electron with spin 1⁄2).
According to the superposition principle of quantum mechanics, wave functions can be added together and multiplied by complex numbers to form new wave functions and form a Hilbert space. The inner product between two wave functions is a measure of the overlap between the corresponding physical states and is used in the foundational probabilistic interpretation of quantum mechanics, the Born rule, relating transition probabilities to inner products. The Schrödinger equation determines how wave functions evolve over time. A wave function behaves qualitatively like other waves, such as water waves or waves on a string, because the Schrödinger equation is mathematically a type of wave equation. This explains the name "wave function", and gives rise to wave–particle duality. However, the wave function in quantum mechanics describes a kind of physical phenomenons, still open to different interpretations, which fundamentally differs from that of classic mechanical waves.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7]
In Born's statistical interpretation,[8][9][10] the squared modulus of the wave function, | ψ |2, is a real number interpreted as the probability density of measuring a particle's being detected at a given place, or having a given momentum, at a given time, and possibly having definite values for discrete degrees of freedom. The integral of this quantity, over all the system's degrees of freedom, must be 1 in accordance with the probability interpretation, this general requirement a wave function must satisfy is called the normalization condition. Since the wave function is complex valued, only its relative phase and relative magnitude can be measured. Its value does not in isolation tell anything about the magnitudes or directions of measurable observables; one has to apply quantum operators, whose eigenvalues correspond to sets of possible results of measurements, to the wave function ψ and calculate the statistical distributions for measurable quantities.

Historical background[edit]
|Quantum mechanics
In 1905 Einstein postulated the proportionality between the frequency of a photon and its energy, E = hf,[11] and in 1916 the corresponding relation between photon momentum and wavelength, λ = h/p.[12] In 1923, De Broglie was the first to suggest that the relation λ = h/p, now called the De Broglie relation, holds for massive particles, the chief clue being Lorentz invariance,[13] and this can be viewed as the starting point for the modern development of quantum mechanics. The equations represent wave–particle duality for both massless and massive particles.
In the 1920s and 1930s, quantum mechanics was developed using calculus and linear algebra. Those who used the techniques of calculus included Louis de Broglie, Erwin Schrödinger, and others, developing "wave mechanics". Those who applied the methods of linear algebra included Werner Heisenberg, Max Born, and others, developing "matrix mechanics". Schrödinger subsequently showed that the two approaches were equivalent.[14]
In 1926, Schrödinger published the famous wave equation now named after him, indeed the Schrödinger equation, based on classical Conservation of energy using quantum operators and the de Broglie relations such that the solutions of the equation are the wave functions for the quantum system.[15] However, no one was clear on how to interpret it.[16] At first, Schrödinger and others thought that wave functions represent particles that are spread out with most of the particle being where the wave function is large.[17] This was shown to be incompatible with how elastic scattering of a wave packet representing a particle off a target appears; it spreads out in all directions.[8] While a scattered particle may scatter in any direction, it does not break up and take off in all directions. In 1926, Born provided the perspective of probability amplitude.[8][9][18] This relates calculations of quantum mechanics directly to probabilistic experimental observations. It is accepted as part of the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics. There are many other interpretations of quantum mechanics. In 1927, Hartree and Fock made the first step in an attempt to solve the N-body wave function, and developed the self-consistency cycle: an iterative algorithm to approximate the solution. Now it is also known as the Hartree–Fock method.[19] The Slater determinant and permanent (of a matrix) was part of the method, provided by John C. Slater.
Schrödinger did encounter an equation for the wave function that satisfied relativistic energy conservation before he published the non-relativistic one, but discarded it as it predicted negative probabilities and negative energies. In 1927, Klein, Gordon and Fock also found it, but incorporated the electromagnetic interaction and proved that it was Lorentz invariant. De Broglie also arrived at the same equation in 1928. This relativistic wave equation is now most commonly known as the Klein–Gordon equation.[20]
In 1927, Pauli phenomenologically found a non-relativistic equation to describe spin-1/2 particles in electromagnetic fields, now called the Pauli equation.[21] Pauli found the wave function was not described by a single complex function of space and time, but needed two complex numbers, which respectively correspond to the spin +1/2 and −1/2 states of the fermion. Soon after in 1928, Dirac found an equation from the first successful unification of special relativity and quantum mechanics applied to the electron, now called the Dirac equation. In this, the wave function is a spinor represented by four complex-valued components:[19] two for the electron and two for the electron's antiparticle, the positron. In the non-relativistic limit, the Dirac wave function resembles the Pauli wave function for the electron. Later, other relativistic wave equations were found.
Wave functions and wave equations in modern theories[edit]
All these wave equations are of enduring importance. The Schrödinger equation and the Pauli equation are under many circumstances excellent approximations of the relativistic variants. They are considerably easier to solve in practical problems than the relativistic equations. The Klein-Gordon equation and the Dirac equation, while being relativistic, do not represent full reconciliation of quantum mechanics and special relativity. The branch of quantum mechanics where these equations are studied the same way as the Schrödinger equation, often called relativistic quantum mechanics, while very successful, has its limitations (see e.g. Lamb shift) and conceptual problems (see e.g. Dirac sea).
Relativity makes it inevitable that the number of particles in a system is not constant. For full reconciliation, quantum field theory is needed.[22] In this theory, the wave equations and the wave functions have their place, but in a somewhat different guise. The main objects of interest are not the wave functions, but rather operators, so called field operators (or just fields where "operator" is understood) on the Hilbert space of states (to be described next section). It turns out that the original relativistic wave equations and their solutions are still needed to build the Hilbert space. Moreover, the free fields operators, i.e. when interactions are assumed not to exist, turn out to (formally) satisfy the same equation as do the fields (wave functions) in many cases.
Thus the Klein-Gordon equation (spin 0) and the Dirac equation (spin 1⁄2) in this guise remain in the theory. Higher spin analogues include the Proca equation (spin 1), Rarita–Schwinger equation (spin 3⁄2), and, more generally, the Bargmann–Wigner equations. For massless free fields two examples are the free field Maxwell equation (spin 1) and the free field Einstein equation (spin 2) for the field operators.[23] All of them are essentially a direct consequence of the requirement of Lorentz invariance. Their solutions must transform under Lorentz transformation in a prescribed way, i.e. under a particular representation of the Lorentz group and that together with few other reasonable demands, e.g. the cluster decomposition principle,[24] with implications for causality is enough to fix the equations.
It should be emphasized that this applies to free field equations; interactions are not included. It should also be noted that the equations and their solutions, though needed for the theories, are not the central objects of study.
Definition (one spinless particle in 1d)[edit]
For now, consider the simple case of a non-relativistic single particle, without spin, in one spatial dimension. More general cases are discussed below.
Position-space wave functions[edit]
The state of such a particle is completely described by its wave function,
where x is position and t is time. This is a complex-valued function of two real variables x and t.
For one spinless particle in 1d, if the wave function is interpreted as a probability amplitude, the square modulus of the wave function, the positive real number
is interpreted as the probability density that the particle is at x. The asterisk indicates the complex conjugate. If the particle's position is measured, its location cannot be determined from the wave function, but is described by a probability distribution. The probability that its position x will be in the interval a ≤ x ≤ b is the integral of the density over this interval:
where t is the time at which the particle was measured. This leads to the normalization condition:
because if the particle is measured, there is 100% probability that it will be somewhere.
For a given system, the set of all possible normalizable wave functions (at any given time) forms an abstract mathematical vector space, meaning that it is possible to add together different wave functions, and multiply wave functions by complex numbers (see vector space for details). Technically, because of the normalization condition, wave functions form a projective space rather than an ordinary vector space. This vector space is infinite-dimensional, because there is no finite set of functions which can be added together in various combinations to create every possible function. Also, it is a Hilbert space, because the inner product of two wave functions Ψ1 and Ψ2 can be defined as the complex number (at time t)[nb 1]
More details are given below. Although the inner product of two wave functions is a complex number, the inner product of a wave function Ψ with itself,
is always a positive real number. The number ||Ψ|| (not ||Ψ||2) is called the norm of the wave function Ψ, and is not the same as the modulus |Ψ|.
If (Ψ, Ψ) = 1, then Ψ is normalized. If Ψ is not normalized, then dividing by its norm gives the normalized function Ψ/||Ψ||. Two wave functions Ψ1 and Ψ2 are orthogonal if (Ψ1, Ψ2) = 0. If they are normalized and orthogonal, they are orthonormal. Orthogonality (hence also orthonormality) of wave functions is instructive to consider since this guarantees linear independence of the functions, but is not a neccersary condition. In a linear combination of orthogonal wave functions Ψn we have,
If the wave functions Ψn were nonorthogonal, the coefficients would be less simple to obtain.
In the Copenhagen interpretation, the modulus squared of the inner product (a complex number) gives a real number
which, assuming both wave functions are normalized, is interpreted as the probability of the wave function Ψ2 "collapsing" to the new wave function Ψ1 upon measurement of an observable, whose eigenvalues are the possible results of the measurement, with Ψ1 being an eigenvector of the resulting eigenvalue. This is the Born rule,[8] and is one of the fundamental postulates of quantum mechanics.
Momentum-space wave functions[edit]
The particle also has a wave function in momentum space:
where p is the momentum in one dimension, which can be any value from −∞ to +∞, and t is time.
Analogous to the position case, the inner product of two wave functions Φ1(p, t) and Φ2(p, t) can be defined as:
One particular solution to the time-independent Schrödinger equation is
a plane wave, which can be used in the description of a particle with momentum exactly p, since it is an eigenfunction of the momentum operator. These functions are not normalizable to unity (they aren't square-integrable), so they are not really elements of physical Hilbert space. The set
forms what is called the momentum basis. This "basis" is not a basis in the usual mathematical sense. For one thing, since the functions aren't normalizable, they are instead normalized to a delta function,
For another thing, though they are linearly independent, there are too many of them (they form an uncountable set) for a basis for physical Hilbert space. They can still be used to express all functions in it using Fourier transforms as described above.
Relations between position and momentum representations[edit]
In Dirac notation, at a particular instant of time, all values of the wave function Ψ(x, t) form the components of a vector, there are uncountably infinitely many of them and integration is used in place of summation;
The time parameter will be suppressed in the following. The x coordinate is a continuous index. The |x⟩ are the basis vectors, which are orthonormal so their inner product is a delta function;
which illuminates the identity operator
Similar reasoning applies to the momentum representation. Finding the identity operator in a basis allows the abstract state to be expressed explicitly in a basis, and more (the inner product between two state vectors, and other operators for observables, can be expressed in the basis). The x and p representations are
Now take the projection of the state Ψ onto eigenfunctions of momentum using the last expression in the two equations,[25]
Then utilizing the known expression for suitably normalized eigenstates of momentum in the position representation solutions of the free Schrödinger equation
one obtains
Likewise, using eigenfunctions of position,
The position-space and momentum-space wave functions are thus found to be Fourier transforms of each other.[26] The two wave functions contain the same information, and either one alone is sufficient to calculate any property of the particle. As representatives of elements of abstract physical Hilbert space, whose elements are the possible states of the system under consideration, they represent the same state vector, hence identical physical states, but they are not generally equal when viewed as square-integrable functions.
In practice, the position-space wave function is used much more often than the momentum-space wave function. The potential entering the relevant equation (Schrödinger, Dirac, etc.) determines in which basis the description is easiest. For the harmonic oscillator, x and p enter symmetrically, so there it doesn't matter which description one uses. The same equation (modulo constants) results. From this follows, with a little bit of afterthought, a factoid: The solutions to the wave equation of the harmonic oscillator are eigenfunctions of the Fourier transform in L2.[nb 2]
Definitions (other cases)[edit]
Following are the general forms of the wave function for systems in higher dimensions and more particles, as well as including other degrees of freedom than position coordinates or momentum components.
The position-space wave function of a single particle in three spatial dimensions is similar to the case of one spatial dimension above:
where r is the position vector in three-dimensional space, and t is time. As always Ψ(r, t) is a complex number, for this case a complex-valued function of four real variables.
If there are many particles, in general there is only one wave function, not a separate wave function for each particle. The fact that one wave function describes many particles is what makes quantum entanglement and the EPR paradox possible. The position-space wave function for N particles is written:[19]
where ri is the position of the ith particle in three-dimensional space, and t is time. Altogether, this is a complex-valued function of 3N + 1 real variables.
In quantum mechanics there is a fundamental distinction between identical particles and distinguishable particles. For example, any two electrons are identical and fundamentally indistinguishable from each other; the laws of physics make it impossible to "stamp an identification number" on a certain electron to keep track of it.[26] This translates to a requirement on the wave function for a system of identical particles:
where the + sign occurs if the particles are all bosons and − sign if they are all fermions. In other words, the wave function is either totally symmetric in the positions of bosons, or totally antisymmetric in the positions of fermions.[27] The physical interchange of particles corresponds to mathematically switching arguments in the wave function. The antisymmetry feature of fermionic wave functions leads to the Pauli principle. Generally, bosonic and fermionic symmetry requirements are the manifestation of particle statistics and are present in other quantum state formalisms.
For N distinguishable particles (no two being identical, i.e. no two having the same set of quantum numbers), there is no requirement for the wave function to be either symmetric or antisymmetric.
For a collection of particles, some identical with coordinates r1, r2, ... and others distinguishable x1, x2, ... (not identical with each other, and not identical to the aforementioned identical particles), the wave function is symmetric or antisymmetric in the identical particle coordinates ri only:
Again, there is no symmetry requirement for the distinguishable particle coordinates xi.
For a particle with spin, the wave function can be written in "position–spin space" as:
which is a complex-valued function of position r in three-dimensional space, time t, and sz, the spin projection quantum number along the z axis. (The z axis is an arbitrary choice; other axes can be used instead if the wave function is transformed appropriately, see below.) The sz parameter, unlike r and t, is a discrete variable. For example, for a spin-1/2 particle, sz can only be +1/2 or −1/2, and not any other value. (In general, for spin s, sz can be s, s − 1, ... , −s + 1, −s.)
Often, the complex values of the wave function for all the spin numbers are arranged into a column vector, in which there are as many entries in the column vector as there are allowed values of sz. In this case, the spin dependence is placed in indexing the entries and the wave function is a complex vector-valued function of space and time only:
The wave function for N particles each with spin is the complex-valued function
For identical particles, symmetry requirements apply to both position and spin arguments of the wave function so it has the overall correct symmetry.
For the general case of N particles with spin in 3d, if Ψ is interpreted as a probability amplitude, the probability density is:
and the probability that particle 1 is in region R1 with spin sz1 = m1 and particle 2 is in region R2 with spin sz2 = m2 etc. at time t is the integral of the probability density over these regions and evaluated at these spin numbers:
The multidimensional Fourier transforms of the position or position–spin space wave functions yields momentum or momentum–spin space wave functions.
The formulae for the inner products are integrals over all coordinates or momenta and sums over all spin quantum numbers. For the general case of N particles with spin in 3d,
this is altogether N three-dimensional volume integrals and N sums over the spins. The differential volume elements d3ri are also written "dVi" or "dxi dyi dzi".
The relation between the quantum state and the wave function is concisely encapsulated in the following equation:
If the orbital and spin angular momenta of the particle are separable in the Hamiltonian operator (in other words, the Hamiltonian can be split into the sum of an orbital term plus a spin term[28]), then the wave function factors into a product of a space function ψ and a spin function ξ,
The time dependence can be placed in either function, and the dynamics of each factor can be studied in isolation. For the case of identical particles, each factor has to have the correct antisymmetry or symmetry, to make the overall wave function antisymmetric for fermions or symmetric for bosons. This factorization is not possible for those interactions where an external field or any space-dependent quantity couples to the spin; examples include a particle in a magnetic field, and spin-orbit coupling.
Time dependence[edit]
For systems in time-independent potentials, the wave function can always be written as a function of the degrees of freedom multiplied by a time-dependent phase factor, the form of which is given by the Schrödinger equation. For N particles, considering their positions only and suppressing other degrees of freedom,
where E is the energy eigenvalue of the system corresponding to the eigenstate Ψ. Wave functions of this form are called stationary states.
The time dependence of the quantum state and the operators can be placed according to unitary transformations on the operators and states. For any quantum state |Ψ⟩ and operator O, in the Schrödinger picture |Ψ(t)⟩ changes with time according to the Schrödinger equation while O is constant. In the Heisenberg picture it is the other way round, |Ψ⟩ is constant while O(t) evolves with time according to the Heisenberg equation of motion. The Dirac (or interaction) picture is intermediate, time dependence is places in both operators and states which evolve according to equations of motion. It is useful primarily in computing S-matrix elements.[29]
Non-relativistic examples[edit]
The following are solutions to the Schrödinger equation for one nonrelativistic spinless particle.
Particle in a box[edit]
A simple model is the particle in a box, a particle is restricted to a 1D region between x = 0 and x = L subject to a potential
has the normalized wave function
Finite potential barrier[edit]
One of most prominent features of the wave mechanics is a possibility for a particle to reach a location with a prohibitive (in classical mechanics) force potential. A common model is the "potential barrier", the one-dimensional case has the potential
and the steady-state solutions to the wave equation have the form (for some constants k, κ)
Note that these wave functions are not normalized; see scattering theory for discussion.
The standard interpretation of this is as a stream of particles being fired at the step from the left (the direction of negative x): setting Ar = 1 corresponds to firing particles singly; the terms containing Ar and Cr signify motion to the right, while Al and Cl – to the left. Under this beam interpretation, put Cl = 0 since no particles are coming from the right. By applying the continuity of wave functions and their derivatives at the boundaries, it is hence possible to determine the constants above.
In a semiconductor crystallite whose radius is smaller than the size of its exciton Bohr radius, the excitons are squeezed, leading to quantum confinement. The energy levels can then be modeled using the particle in a box model in which the energy of different states is dependent on the length of the box.
Quantum harmonic oscillator[edit]
The wave functions for the quantum harmonic oscillator can be expressed in terms of Hermite polynomials Hn, they are
where n = 0,1,2,....
Hydrogen atom[edit]
The wave functions of an electron in a Hydrogen atom are expressed in terms of spherical harmonics and generalized Laguerre polynomials (these are defined differently by different authors—see main article on them and the hydrogen atom).
It is convenient to use spherical coordinates, and the wavefunction can be separated into functions of each coordinate,[30]
where R are radial functions and Ym
ℓ(θ, φ) are spherical harmonics of degree ℓ and order m. This is the only atom for which the Schrödinger equation has been solved for exactly. Multi-electron atoms require approximative methods. The family of solutions are:[31]
where a0 = 4πε0ħ2/mee2 is the Bohr radius, L2ℓ + 1
n − ℓ − 1 are the generalized Laguerre polynomials of degree n − ℓ − 1, n = 1, 2, ... is the principal quantum number, ℓ = 1, 2, ... n − 1 the azimuthal quantum number, m = −ℓ, −ℓ + 1, ..., ℓ − 1, ℓ the magnetic quantum number. Hydrogen-like atoms have very similar solutions.
This solution does not take into account the spin of the electron.
In the figure of the hydrogen orbitals, the 19 sub-images are images of wave functions in position space (their norm squared). The wave functions each represent the abstract state characterized by the triple of quantum numbers (n, l, m), in the lower right of each image. These are the principal quantum number, the orbital angular momentum quantum number and the magnetic quantum number. Together with one spin-projection quantum number of the electron, this is a complete set of observables.
The figure can serve to illustrate some further properties of the function spaces of wave functions.
- In this case, the wave functions are square integrable. One can initially take the function space as the space of square integrable functions, usually denoted L2.
- The displayed functions are solutions to the Schrödinger equation. Obviously, not every function in L2 satisfies the Schrödinger equation for the hydrogen atom. The function space is thus a subspace of L2.
- The displayed functions form part of a basis for the function space. To each triple (n, l, m), there corresponds a basis wave function. If spin is taken into account, there are two basis functions for each triple. The function space thus has a countable basis.
- The basis functions are mutually orthonormal.
Mathematical formulation[edit]
General representations[edit]
Let α = (α1, α2, ..., αn) be dimensionless discrete-valued observables, and ω = (ω1, ω2, ..., ωm) be continuous-valued observables (each ωi may have different units). All α are in a n-dimensional set A = A1 × A2 × ... An where each Ai is the set of allowed values for αi, likewise all ω are in a m-dimensional "volume" Ω ⊆ ℝm where Ω = Ω1 × Ω2 × ... Ωm and each Ωi ⊆ ℝ is the set of allowed values for ωi, a subset of the real numbers ℝ. For generality n and m are not necessarily equal.
Then, Ψ(α, ω, t) is referred to as the "wave function" of the system.
For example,
- for a single particle with spin, assuming Spherical coordinates, α = (sθφ) is the spin quantum number of the particle along the θφ direction, and ω = (r, θ, φ) are the position coordinates. Here A = {−s, −s + 1, ..., s − 1, s} is the set of allowed spin quantum numbers and Ω = ℝ3 is the set of all possible particle positions throughout 3d position space. Alternatively, assuming Cartesian coordinates, we could take α = (sy) as the spin quantum number along the y direction, and ω = (px, py, pz) for the momentum components, while A and Ω are the same as before.
- for a system with N distinguishable particles in 3d each with spin, the extension is straightforward, α = (sz1, sz2, ..., szN) are the spin quantum numbers along the z direction, and ω = (x1, y1, z1, x2, y2, z2, ..., xN, yN, zN) the position coordinates. Here A = A1 × A2 × ... AN is the set of all possible spin configurations in which Ai = {−si, −si + 1, ..., si − 1, si} is set of spin quantum numbers for particle i, and Ω = ℝ3N the configuration space of the system. Likewise for spin along another direction or momenta instead of position coordinates.
In the Copenhagen interpretation, the probability density of finding the system in any state is
The probability of finding system with α in some or all possible discrete-variable configurations, D ⊆ A, and ω in some or all possible continuous-variable configurations, C ⊆ Ω, is the sum and integral over the density,[nb 3]
where dmω = dω1dω2...dωm and g the determinant of the metric tensor for the coordinate system used for ω. The product √gdmω is a "differential volume element".
The units of the wavefunction are then such that ρ √g dmω is dimensionless, by dimensional analysis Ψ must have the same units as [√g ω1ω2...ωm]−1/2. Since the sum of all probabilities must be 1, the normalization condition
must hold at all times during the evolution of the system. At the time t the system is measured, the system will be in some particular state, all the αi and ωj will each have particular values.
Every value of the wave function is accumulated into a single vector in Dirac notation
in which (α, ω) index the components of the vector, and |α, ω⟩ are the basis vectors in this representation.
There are several advantages to understanding wave functions as representing elements of an abstract vector space:
- All the powerful tools of linear algebra can be used to manipulate and understand wave functions. For example:
- Linear algebra explains how a vector space can be given a basis, and then any vector in the vector space can be expressed in this basis. This explains the relationship between a wave function in position space and a wave function in momentum space, and suggests that there are other possibilities too.
- Bra–ket notation can be used to manipulate wave functions.
- The idea that quantum states are vectors in an abstract vector space (technically, a complex projective Hilbert space) is completely general in all aspects of quantum mechanics and quantum field theory, whereas the idea that quantum states are complex-valued "wave" functions of space is only true in certain situations.
The concept of function spaces enters naturally in the discussion about wave functions. A function space is a set of functions, usually with some defining requirements on the functions, together with a topology on that set. The latter will sparsely be used here, it is only needed to obtain a precise definition of what it means for a subset of a function space to be closed. A wave function is an element of a function space partly characterized by the following concrete and abstract descriptions.
- The Schrödinger equation is linear. This means that the solutions to it, wave functions, can be added and multiplied by scalars to form a new solution. The set of solutions to the Schrödinger equation is a vector space.
- The superposition principle of quantum mechanics. If Ψ and Φ are two states in the abstract space of states of a quantum mechanical system, and a and b are any two complex numbers, then aΨ + bΦ is a valid state as well. The set of allowable states is a vector space.
This similarity is of course not accidental. Not all properties of the respective spaces have been given so far. There are also a distinctions between the spaces to keep in mind.
Basic states are characterized by a set of quantum numbers. This is a set of eigenvalues of a maximal set of commuting observables. A choice of such a set may be called a choice of representation.
- It is a postulate of quantum mechanics that a physically observable quantity of a system, such as position, momentum, or spin, is represented by a linear Hermitian operator on the state space. The possible outcomes of measurement of the quantity are the eigenvalues of the operator.[17]
- Maximality means that there can be added to the set no further algebraically independent linear Hermitian operator that commutes with the ones already present.
- The physical interpretation is that such a set represents what can – in theory – be simultaneously be measured with arbitrary precision.
- The set is non-unique. It may for a one-particle system, for example, be position and spin z-projection, (x, Sz), or it may be momentum and spin y-projection, (p, Sy). At a deeper level, most observables, perhaps all, arise as generators of symmetries.[17][32][nb 4]
- Once a representation is chosen, there is still arbitrariness. It remains to choose a coordinate system. This may, for example, correspond to a choice of x, y- and z-axis, or a choice of curvlinear coordinates as exemplified by the spherical coordinates used for the Hydrogen atomic wave functions. This final choice also fixes a basis in abstract Hilbert space. The basic states are labeled by the quantum numbers corresponding to the maximal set of commuting observables and an appropriate coordinate system.[nb 5]
- The abstract states are "abstract" only in that an arbitrary choice necessary for a particular explicit description of it is not given. This is the same as saying that no choice of maximal set of commuting observables has been given. This is analogous to a vector space without a specified basis.
Wave functions corresponding to a state are accordingly not unique. This non-uniqueness reflects the non-uniqueness in the choice of a maximal set of commuting observables. For one spin particle in one dimension, to a particular state there corresponds two wave functions, Ψ(α, ω) and Ψ(α, ω), both describing the same state.
- For each choice of maximal commuting sets of observables for the abstract state space, there is a corresponding representation that is associated to a function space of wave functions.
- Each choice of representation should be thought of as specifying a unique function space in which wave functions corresponding to that choice of representation lives. This distinction is best kept, even if one could argue that two such function spaces are mathematically equal, e.g. being the set of square integrable functions. One can then think of the function spaces as two distinct copies of that set.
- Between all these different function spaces and the abstract state space, there are one-to-one correspondences (here disregarding normalization and unobservable phase factors), the common denominator here being a particular abstract state. The relationship between the momentum and position space wave functions, for instance, describing the same state is the Fourier transform.
These observations encapsulate the essence of the function spaces of which wave functions are elements. However the description is not yet complete. There is a further technical requirement on the function space, that of completeness, that allows one to take limits of sequences in the function space, and be ensured that, if the limit exists, it is an element of the function space. A complete inner product space is called a Hilbert space. The property of completeness is crucial in advanced treatments and applications of quantum mechanics. It will not be very important in the subsequent discussion of wave functions, and technical details and links may be found in footnotes like the one that follows.[nb 6] The space L2 is a Hilbert space, with inner product presented later. The function space of the example of the figure is a subspace of L2. A subspace of a Hilbert space is a Hilbert space if it is closed. It is here that the topology of the function space enters into its description.
In summary, the set of all possible normalizable wave functions for a system with a particular choice of basis constitute a Hilbert space.
Not all functions to be discussed are elements of some Hilbert space, say L2. The most glaring example is the set of functions e2πipx⁄h. These are solutions of the Schrödinger equation for a free particle, but are not normalizable, hence not in L2. But they are nonetheless fundamental for the description. One can, using them, express functions that are normalizable using wave packets. They are, in a sense to be made precise later, a basis (but not a Hilbert space basis) in which wave functions of interest can be expressed. There is also the artifact "normalization to a delta function" that is frequently employed for notational convenience, see further down. The delta functions themselves aren't square integrable either.
The above description of the function space containing the wave functions is mostly mathematically motivated. The function spaces are, due to completeness, very large in a certain sense. Not all functions are realistic descriptions of any physical system. For instance, in the function space L2 one can find the function that takes on the value 0 for all rational numbers and -i for the irrationals in the interval [0, 1]. This is square integrable,[nb 7] but can hardly represent a physical state.
The following constraints on the wave function are sometimes explicitly formulated for the calculations and physical interpretation to make sense:[33][34]
- The wave function must be square integrable. This is motivated by the Copenhagen interpretation of the wave function as a probability amplitude.
- It must be everywhere continuous and everywhere continuously differentiable. This is motivated by the appearance of the Schrödinger equation.
It is possible to relax these conditions somewhat for special purposes.[nb 8] If these requirements are not met, it is not possible to interpret the wave function as a probability amplitude.[35]
This does not alter the structure of the Hilbert space that these particular wave functions inhabit, but it should be pointed out that the subspace of the square-integrable functions L2, which is a Hilbert space, satisfying the second requirement is not closed in L2, hence not a Hilbert space in itself.[nb 9] The functions that does not meet the requirements are still needed for both technical and practical reasons.[nb 10][nb 11]
Whether the wave function really exists, and what it represents, are major questions in the interpretation of quantum mechanics. Many famous physicists of a previous generation puzzled over this problem, such as Schrödinger, Einstein and Bohr. Some advocate formulations or variants of the Copenhagen interpretation (e.g. Bohr, Wigner and von Neumann) while others, such as Wheeler or Jaynes, take the more classical approach[36] and regard the wave function as representing information in the mind of the observer, i.e. a measure of our knowledge of reality. Some, including Schrödinger, Bohm and Everett and others, argued that the wave function must have an objective, physical existence. Einstein thought that a complete description of physical reality should refer directly to physical space and time, as distinct from the wave function, which refers to an abstract mathematical space.[37]

- ^ The functions are here assumed to be elements of L2, the space of square integrable functions. The elements of this space are more precisely equivalence classes of square integrable functions, two functions declared equivalent if they differ on a set of Lebesgue measure 0. This is necessary to obtain an inner product (that is, (Ψ, Ψ) = 0 ⇒ Ψ ≡ 0) as opposed to a semi-inner product. The integral is taken to be the Lebesque integral. This is essential for completeness of the space, thus yielding a complete inner product space = Hilbert space.
- ^ The Fourier transform viewed as a unitary operator on the space L2 has eigenvalues ±1, ±i. The eigenvectors are "Hermite functions", i.e. Hermite polynomials multiplied by a Gaussian function. See Byron & Fuller (1992) for a description of the Fourier transform as a unitary transformation. For eigenvalues and eigenvalues, refer to Problem 27 Ch. 9.
- ^ Here
- ^ For this statement to make sense, the observables need to be elements of a maximal commuting set. To see this, it is a simple matter to note that, for example, the momentum operator of the i'th particle in a n-particle system is not a generator of any symmetry in nature. On the other hand, the total momentum is a generator of a symmetry in nature; the translational symmetry.
- ^ The resulting basis may or may not technically be a basis in the mathematical sense of Hilbert spaces. For instance, states of definite position and definite momentum are not square integrable. This may be overcome with the use of wave packets or by enclosing the system in a "box". See further remarks below.
- ^ In technical terms, this is formulated the following way. The inner product yields a norm. This norm in turn induces a metric. If this metric is complete, then the aforementioned limits will be in the function space. The inner product space is then called complete. A complete inner product space is a Hilbert space. The abstract state space is always taken as a Hilbert space. The matching requirement for the function spaces is a natural one. The Hilbert space property of the abstract state space was originally extracted from the observation that the function spaces forming normalizable solutions to the Schrödinger equation are Hilbert spaces.
- ^ As is explained in a later footnote, the integral must be taken to be the Lebesgue integral, the Riemann integral is not sufficient.
- ^ One such relaxation is that the wave function must belong to the Sobolev space W1,2. It means that it is differentiable in the sense of distributions, and its gradient is square-integrable. This relaxation is necessary for potentials that are not functions but are distributions, such as the Dirac delta function.
- ^ It is easy to visualize a sequence of functions meeting the requirement that converges to a discontinuous function. For this, modify an example given in Inner product space#Examples. This element though is an element of L2.
- ^ For instance, in perturbation theory one may construct a sequence of functions approximating the true wave function. This sequence will be guaranteed to converge in a larger space, but without the assumption of a full-fledged Hilbert space, it will not be guaranteed that the convergence is to a function in the relevant space and hence solving the original problem.

Many possibilities on this vehicle. Struts will make rattling noises, especially when first driving in the morning. The sway bar end links fail and cause rattling from the front and rear of the vehicle. The control Arm bushings wear out and cause noise and the upper strut plates can break, but this will cause a pretty loud noise over bumps.
An inspection by an experienced Volvo tech would likely figure this out rather quickly.

Celebrity Pictures in Designer Jeans
Sarah Jessica Parker in Paige
Sarah Jessica Parker got caught in the rain while taking her two twin daughters (Marion and Tabitha) to an office a couple of days ago in New York City.
Sarah pulled out her Paige Bentley jeans again in Mischief. We haven't seen her in these for a while so I am glad she's wearing them again. I think they suit her laid back style very well. Have any of you tried the Bentley jeans from Paige yet? Buy these jeans at PaigeUSA for $199.
Bruno Mars in Levi's Double Denim
Bruno Mars hosted at Bank Nightclub at Bellagio Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada a couple of days ago. I know a lot of people either like or dislike Bruno, I really like his music, I especially liked his Valerie cover at the VMA's.
He was wearing a Levi's denim jacket with an American flag on the back paired with some Levi's skinny jeans for the day. I quite like the wash of the jacket, it's a nice medium vintage looking colour which is perfect for denim jackets in my opinion.

Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber were snapped hanging out at a beach in Malibu. Selena is currently on tour but made some time to hang out on the beach with Justin. They look so into each other in these pictures but they're a little more PG than the last photos of them at the beach!
Selena wore a pair of American Eagle cut off tie-dye shorts with a sweater and flats. Selena wears a lot of American Eagle, she's been spotted in both jeans and shorts by the brand before. Buy American Eagle online at Ae.com.

BYU basketball: Thanks to influx of talent, BYU coach Dave Rose says Cougars will be better next season
Scott G Winterton, Deseret News
PROVO — Things looked bleak for BYU coach Dave Rose's team entering the month of January. The Cougars had a mediocre 8-7 record and were mired in a four-game losing streak.
"You don't want your team to get in a situation that we got in," Rose recalled Monday in his office during a season-ending interview with the Deseret News, "and you wonder what direction the team's going to take."
As it turned out, Rose made some adjustments, the players regrouped, and BYU bounced back to finish with a 23-12 overall record and earn its seventh bid to the NCAA tournament in eight years.
"I'm really proud of this group. There's a lot of different ways they could have handled that situation," Rose said. "These guys were really determined that they were going to fix it and change it and take advantage of the opportunities that we had in the second half of the season that we kind of let get away in the first part of the season. The fact that we got to the NCAA tournament, which is the main goal that you set every year, that brings some validity to the fact that they did turn it around."
The Cougars received a surprising No. 10 seed and lost to No. 7 Oregon in the tournament in Milwaukee.
"We're disappointed that we didn't advance," Rose said. "Once you make the tournament, you want to advance. Hopefully that really motivates us for what we have ahead of us in the offseason."
Rose said that thanks to an infusion of several talented players going into next season, "we'll have a better team" in 2014-15.
"I really like our roster, with depth on the guard line and depth at the post," Rose added. "I feel pretty confident about the makeup of our roster."
The Cougars will add transfers Chase Fischer (Wake Forest) and Jamal Aytes (UNLV); returned LDS missionaries Isaac Neilson and Jordan Chatman; and freshman Ryan Andrus (American Fork High).
That group will bolster an experienced nucleus — WCC Player of the Year Tyler Haws; guards Kyle Collinsworth, Matt Carlino, Anson Winder, Skyler Halford and Frank Bartley IV; and forwards Nate Austin, Luke Worthington and Josh Sharp.
With no seniors graduating, the Cougars lose just one player, forward Eric Mika, who departs for an LDS mission in May.
That leaves BYU with 14 players on the roster and just 13 scholarships available.
Rose said he will sit down with his players this week for their annual interviews and then determine how to handle the scholarship crunch.
"We won't make any decisions until we finish up with the player-coach meetings," Rose said. "They're pretty upfront, honest evaluations from the player to me and from me to the player. Then after that, you give it some time to see how it plays out with the guys that are returning. We need to get to the end of the academic term. From there, the majority of the time, it works itself out around the first part of May. We'll see how it goes this year."
BYU played in the NCAA tournament without Collinsworth, who suffered a season-ending knee injury during the West Coast Conference tournament championship game against Gonzaga.
Rose said the surgery went well and Collinsworth is eager to begin rehabilitation. Recovery time for a repaired ACL injury is usually six to eight months. Rose is optimistic that Collinsworth will be on the floor sooner than that.

"I think my mom (Kathy Nguyen) enjoyed it more than I did. It felt so good to know I gave something for my mom and grandmother to be proud of, because growing up I gave them such a hard time. It was great to do something to make them happy, for them to tell their friends. Anything I can do to put a smile on mom's face, I love to do."

"We literally said there is only one person for this role, and it's Kathy Bates. We felt so strongly, in fact, that we thought we probably wouldn't make it unless we got Kathy."
"Then Kathy says, 'Rufus!'/ Rufus says, 'Kathy!'/ Chuck says, 'Rufus!'/ Rufus says, 'Chuck!'/ Then Kathy grabs Rufus."
"We had six, lost three, then gained three, and have six again. We have a nice group. Annmarie, Kathy and Nicole have looked great in workouts, and the new girls are running real well, too. We have six good girls who run in a pack. I don't know how we'll do, but I think we'll be tough to beat."
