the questions is: is the ground state of an infinite square well an eigenfunction of momentum, if so what is the momentum?
solution:
i was working it out and i got something different from the solutions, and i don't understand where they're getting the cotangent term from..
and also, please confirm this for me; the eigenvector is the wavefunction, the eigenvalue is the observable (in this case, the momentum), and the eigenFUNCTION is the operator right?
