Class documentation¶

class WaveBlocksND.BasisTransformation(potential)[source]¶

This class is the interface definition for general basis transformation procedures. The transformation switches between the canonical basis of the potential $V(x)$ and its eigenbasis $\Lambda(x)$ consisting of the energy levels $\lambda_i(x)$ with $i \in [0, \ldots, N]$ .

__init__(potential)[source]¶

Create a new BasisTransformation instance for a given potential matrix $V(x)$ .

Parameters:	potential (A `MatrixPotential` instance.) – The potential underlying the basis transformation.

transform_to_canonical(transformable)[source]¶: Do nothing, implement an identity transformation.

transform_to_eigen(transformable)[source]¶: Do nothing, implement an identity transformation.
