Welcome
Welcome to ProofWiki! Since you're new, you may want to check out the general help page. It's the best first stop to see how things are done (next to reading proofs, of course!). Please feel free to contribute to whichever area of mathematics interests you, either by adding new proofs, or fixing up existing ones. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me, or post your question on the questions page.

Here are some useful pages to help get you started:
 * Community Portal - To see what needs to be done, and keep up to date with the community.
 * Recent Changes - To keep up with what's new, and what's being added.
 * Check out our house style if you are keen on contributing.
 * Main Page talk - This is where most of the main discussions regarding the direction of the site take place. If you have any ideas, please share them!

Cheers, prime.mover (talk)

Hermitian Operators
Nice entry - but I'm going to split it into two, as that's the way this site works. One page, one result (where practical).

We will also need to document the notation, as this particular symbology has not yet been mentioned on this site.

Thanks. --prime mover 02:48, 8 July 2011 (CDT)
 * Okay, thanks for the correction. I used bra-ket notation for the proof, although I could convert it to standard inner product notation if need be (the $\langle f,g \rangle$ one). I'm obviously new to the site, so any help is much appreciated! Ginogrz 03:02, 8 July 2011 (CDT)


 * No worries. There is no "standard notation" as such on this site, it has proved difficult to administer. When people post stuff up, they use whatever notation they are comfortable with, and (except in some cases where particular "modern" notation is deemed superior) it seems pointless to enforce a style. However, in the case of non-standard or unusual notation, we define the notation on any page where it's used - or better, link to the page where the concept is defined. You'll pick it up. --prime mover 03:15, 8 July 2011 (CDT)


 * Makes sense. Would it then be acceptable to provide an external link to Wikipedia's article on bra-ket notation? Or would there have to be an article on it on ProofWiki itself? Ginogrz 03:17, 8 July 2011 (CDT)
