Wavefunction Representation
The wavefunction \Psi(x, t) describes the state of a quantum system, representing the probability amplitude of finding the particle at a specific position and time.

The statement of the theorem
Let be a separable Hilbert space representing the state space of a quantum system. The state is described by the wavefunction . The time evolution of is governed by the time-dependent Schrödinger equation, which mandates that the Hamiltonian operator must be Hermitian, such that:\n\nFurthermore, the probability density function is defined by the Born rule, requiring the normalization condition:\n
