| Dec 11, 2014 at 23:58 | comment | added | CuriousOne | The use of the Schroedinger equation in solid state physics is an ad-hoc modeling approach that bypasses the technical difficulty of "correct" effective field theories for the same systems. The effective potentials used in these models are toy potentials. Luckily, many of these simplified systems agree rather well with the observed phenomenology. The additional effects that stem from the discretization of the spectra due to finite (or periodic) boundary conditions can be seen as an additional numerical trick to avoid the mathematical complexity of continuous spectra of linear operators. | |
