Day 370: Position and Momentum Space

Day 370 of 2,016~14 min read

Learning Objectives

  • •**Transform between position and momentum representations** using Fourier transforms
  • •**Express operators in both representations** (x̂ in p-space, p̂ in x-space)
  • •**Apply completeness relations** to expand states
  • •**Calculate expectation values** in either representation
  • •**Use the FFT** for practical momentum-space calculations
  • •**Understand the deep duality** between position and momentum
