Heisenberg cut we represent mathematically as a wave function. This function, according to quantum theory, consists of a differential equation which determines any future state from the present state of the function... The dividing line between the system to be observed and the measuring apparatus is immediately defined by the nature of the problem but it obviously signifies no discontinuity of the physical process. For this reason there must, within limits, exist complete freedom in choosing the position of the dividing line." Heisenberg cut In quantum mechanics, a Heisenberg cut is the hypothetical interface between quantum events and an observer's information, knowledge,
Heisenberg group the special property that the exponential map is a one-to-one and onto map from the Lie algebra formula_16 to the group formula_1. More general Heisenberg groups formula_31 may be defined for higher dimensions in Euclidean space, and more generally on symplectic vector spaces. The simplest general case is the real Heisenberg group of dimension formula_32, for any integer formula_33. As a group of matrices, formula_31 (or formula_35 to indicate this is the Heisenberg group over the field formula_36 of real numbers) is defined as the group formula_37 matrices with entries in formula_36 and having the form: where This is indeed
