A commutation relation is a mathematical expression that describes the relationship between two operators in quantum mechanics, specifically indicating whether the operators can be simultaneously measured or not. If two operators commute, their commutation relation equals zero, meaning they share a complete set of eigenstates, allowing for simultaneous measurement. If they do not commute, their commutation relation is non-zero, implying an inherent uncertainty in measuring the corresponding observables at the same time.
congrats on reading the definition of Commutation Relation. now let's actually learn it.
