This might turn out to be a stupid question but ...i couldn't understand
The propagater is defined as exp[-iHt/(h/2pi)]...this would be the matrix
so U(t)|[tex]\psi[/tex](x,0)> (matrix . vector) would give |[tex]\psi[/tex](x,t)>
What i couldn't understand is that the propagator is a diagonal matrix..but it is obvious that
probability of a particle at x,t will be affected by the entire wave distribution.
