| Feb 12, 2020 at 17:34 | comment | added | Cosmas Zachos | By the way, the nitpicking definition in Dirac's book is $q_i\to |q_i\rangle= \delta (\hat x -q_i) \rangle$, where $\rangle$ is Dirac's "standard ket", the translationally invariant vacuum, i.e. the $p\to 0$ limit of $|p\rangle$. | |

| Feb 12, 2020 at 16:48 | comment | added | Cosmas Zachos | I believe you are confusing two theories with the most popular description pictures utilized for them. QM has a perfectly fine description in phase space , as well, and, conversely, classical mechanics in Hilbert space, as well; and contrasting the structure of the two descriptions does not fully contrast the two theories. | |
