The mathematical concept of a Hilbert space generalizes the notion of Euclidean space. It extends the methods of Euclidean geometry and calculus from the two-dimensional Euclidean plane and three-dime

Quantum mechanics, also known as quantum physics, is the fundamental physical theory that describes the behavior of matter and of light; the behaviors it models typically occur at and below the scale

…instance by the Plancherel theorem for spherical functions occurring in noncommutative harmonic analysis. In the mathematically rigorous formulation of quantum mechanics, developed by John von Neumann, the possible states (more precisely, the pure states) of a quantum mechanical system are represented by unit vectors…
A simplified diagram of quantum tunneling, a phenomenon by which a particle may move through a barrier which would be impossible under classical mechanics
Max Planck is considered the father of the quantum theory.
The 1927 Solvay Conference in Brussels was the fifth world physics conference.
