I try using the commutation relation of the position operator and the Hamiltonian, but failed.:bugeye::bugeye:

Thanks for your kindly help!

By the way, I don't know how to show the pics directly, sorry about that.
 
Multiply the left hand side by the energy denominator. Insert the hamiltonian operator. The commutator trick should then work.

Thanks for your reply.^^ You mean like this?
But it's not the original equation. I know that the commutator of position and Hamiltonian is equal to velocity multiplies by
i and hbar(positive or negative sign added). But what I want to know is how to transform the position operator "itself" into the "velocity form" in the first pic I posted. Or my procedure is simply incorrect?

Ooooooooooops, I got through it, thanks for you help!
You are right! No further questions at all...
 
Not an expert in QM. AFAIK, Schrödinger's equation is quite different from the classical wave equation. The former is an equation for the dynamics of the state of a (quantum?) system, the latter is an equation for the dynamics of a (classical) degree of freedom. As a matter of fact, Schrödinger's equation is first order in time derivatives, while the classical wave equation is second order. But, AFAIK, Schrödinger's equation is a wave equation; only its interpretation makes it non-classical...

Is it possible, and fruitful, to use certain conceptual and technical tools from effective field theory (coarse-graining/integrating-out, power-counting, matching, RG) to think about the relationship between the fundamental (quantum) and the emergent (classical), both to account for the quasi-autonomy of the classical level and to quantify residual quantum corrections? By “emergent,” I mean the following: after integrating out fast/irrelevant quantum degrees of freedom (high-energy modes...
