ABSTRACT
In this chapter, the authors describe the Heisenberg picture of quantum mechanics by formally accomplishing a time-dependent transformation of state vectors and operators of the Schrodinger picture. Any new picture of quantum mechanics will be acceptable, if the Schrodinger state vectors and operators are subjected to a transformation, which does not alter: the spectrum of the eigenvalues of the operators and the scalar product of an arbitrary state vector with the eigenstate vectors. These two conditions are easily fulfilled by means of the unitary transformations. The authors show that a unitary operator represents an isomorph mapping of a certain unitary vector space onto itself. Since the physical quantities measured in the experiment are, in fact, a measure of the scalar product, as implied by the definition of the probability W through the scalar product in, it is clear that the predictions based upon the new, Heisenberg picture must be identical to those obtained in the Schrodinger picture.
