Linear algebra is the mathematical framework used to describe vectors, matrices, and operators in quantum theory.
Description
Quantum systems are described using vectors in abstract spaces. Linear algebra provides the tools to manipulate these vectors and relate them through operators and transformations.
Properties
- describes vectors and matrices
- framework for quantum states
- used for operators and transformations
