SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the relationship between an observable C and a complex potential B, expressed as C = &bar;B B. The participant establishes that at the equilibrium reference state, C evaluates to a known constant C0. However, they conclude that this information does not allow for any definitive conclusions regarding the values of B or &bar;B at the same equilibrium state. The conversation also highlights the importance of proper LaTeX formatting in mathematical expressions.

I have an observable denoted by C, related to a complex potential B by :

## C= \bar{B}B ,##

where ##B## is a complex potential. I know that ## \left. C \right|_0 =C_0 ##, a known constant, where the evaluation at ##_0## denotes an equilibrium \ reference state. From this, I can not make any conclusions on ## \left. B \right|_0##, or ## \left. \bar{B} \right|_0## can I ?

Thanks.

You forgot to use '##'. It is always a good practice to preview Latex to make sure it is doing what you want.

i didn't, it just created it on a new line and i didnt want that.
 
In your first post, I see a lot of single '#'s. Those should all be double '##'.
 
i thought double creates a new line. anyway, it wont let me edit it now.
 
(LaTex fixed)
