Interaction picture as any other operator. In particular, let and be the density matrices in the interaction picture and the Schrödinger picture respectively. If there is probability to be in the physical state |"ψ"〉, then Transforming the Schrödinger equation into the interaction picture gives which states that in the interaction picture, a quantum state is evolved by the interaction part of the Hamiltonian as expressed in the interaction picture. If the operator "A" is time-independent (i.e., does not have "explicit time dependence"; see above), then the corresponding time evolution for "A"("t") is given by In the interaction picture the operators evolve in
The Unreasonable Effectiveness of Mathematics in the Natural Sciences that much of what we see comes from the glasses we put on. Eddington went so far as to claim that a sufficiently wise mind could deduce all of physics, illustrating his point with the following joke: "Some men went fishing in the sea with a net, and upon examining what they caught they concluded that there was a minimum size to the fish in the sea." Hamming gives four examples of nontrivial physical phenomena he believes arose from the mathematical tools employed and not from the intrinsic properties of physical reality. 2. "Humans create and select the mathematics that
