We give a mathematically rigorous derivation of Ehrenfest's equations for the evolution of position and momentum expectation values under general and natural assumptions which include atomic and molecular Hamiltonians with Coulomb interactions. REFERENCES. 1. De Vincenzo, S.,, " On the Ehrenfest theorem in a one-dimensional box To derive this theorem in the Heisenberg picture is quite easy. Take the expectation value of the quantum form of Newton's second law, d2Xi(t) dt2. = @V @xi. (X(t)); and use the time independence of the state vector to obtain (exercise) d2. dt2. hXi(t) = hFi(t); where F is the force. This result is Ehrenfest's theorem. The Ehrenfest theorem is a special case of a more general relation between the expectation of any quantum mechanical operator and the expectation of the commutator of that operator with the Hamiltonian of the system [2] [3] where A is some quantum mechanical operator and A is its expectation value. It is most apparent in the Heisenberg picture Ehrenfest theorem. theorem that the time evolution of the expectation value of a quantum observable is proportional to that of the commutator between the observable and the Hamiltonian (plus that of any explicit time dependence of the operator, if any) Upload media.
