Graduate Why are eigenstates symmetric or antisymmetric for symmetric potentials?
Hi, Can anyone help me to understand the following please? If a potential is symmetric does this mean that the eigenstates are either symmetric or antisymmetric? Is the ground state always symmetric and the first excited state always antisymmetric? Thanks!- MJC3Jh
