Like.
Schrodinger didn't know what is the physical meaning of the wave. He only used the nonrelativistic energy formula $$E=\frac{p^2}{2m}+... -
MNot an expert in QM. AFAIK, Schrödinger's equation is quite different from the classical wave equation. The former is an equation for...

MMeden Agan reacted to mathwonk's post in the thread How can we teach students the difference between sequences and series? with Like.
Perhaps the answer is contained in your first point. I.e. perhaps one should teach sequences first and thoroughly, and only treat...

MMeden Agan reacted to fresh_42's post in the thread Is mathematics invented or discovered? with Like.
I am, and many mathematicians are, too, a Platonist. It is discovered. I even go as far as thinking that great compositions or paintings...
