Eigenvalue $a_n$
Q1:
In Zetilli's book page 166 (ch. "Postulates of QM", eq. 3.1) i encountered an expression $\hat{A}|\psi\rangle = a_n|\psi_n\rangle$. I know this is an eigenvalue equation, but i have seen another ...

Math of eigenvalue problem in quantum mechanics
I learned the eigenvalue problem in linear algebra before and I just find that the quantum mechanics happen to associate the Schrodinger equation with the eigenvalue problem. In linear algebra, we ...

Schriffer Wolff Transformation - for first order change in eigenvalues
Step 1
Let me formulate the problem to convey my notation.
I have a matrix $A$ which is hermitian - and is diagonalisable by a transformation
$$ U_A A\,\,U_A^{-1} = A_{diag}$$
Now the matrix is ...

Eigenvalues of a mean correlation matrix (integral over correlation matrices with arbitrary density)
Consider a stationary dynamic system with state $s(t)$ and correlation structure described by $C_{ij}(\tau)=\mathbb{E}[(s_i(t+\tau)-\bar{s_i})(s_j(t)-\bar{s_j})]$. Given an arbitrary density function ...

Random quantum systems with asymmetric Lifshitz tails?
For a quantum mechanical system with a periodic Hamiltonian (Schrödinger operator) $H$, let $N(E)$ be its integrated density of states, i.e. the fraction of eigenvalues in the spectrum $\sigma(H)$ ...

Random Hankel matrix and eigenvalues distribution
I would like to know if there are any theoretical results on the distribution of the eigenvalues of Hankel matrices. I seek a result like the Marchenko–Pastur distribution for random matrices.
