When an eigenvector of a semi-bounded operator is positive, we show that a remarkably simple argument allows to obtain upper and lower bounds for its associated eigenvalue. This theorem is a substantial generalization of Barta-like…

Courses on undergraduate quantum mechanics usually focus on solutions of the Schr\"odinger equation for several simple one-dimensional examples. When the notion of a Hilbert space is introduced only academic examples are used, such as the…

We show how to use boundary conditions to drive the evolution on a Quantum Mechanical system. We will see how this problem can be expressed in terms of a time-dependent Schr\"{o}dinger equation. In particular we will need the theory of…
