JvNrocks Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 John von Neumann gave a formal axiomatic treatment that united the equations of Heisenberg and Shrodinger in 1932. This is one of his astonishing achievements in physics and many other fields. I'm writing a book on Johnny (his preferred name) and would like some opinions on the gravity and staying power of his work. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that was a real mess, both disagreed with each other, Schrodinger just couldn't be satisfied without a physical explanation and the two were bitter towards each other even, but it is pretty astounding that they took completely different routes and ended up with essentially the same mechanics.
