Bra-ket notation is a mathematical notation used in quantum mechanics to describe quantum states. It provides a compact way to represent vectors and dual vectors in a Hilbert space, where 'bra' vectors denote linear functionals and 'ket' vectors denote state vectors. This notation simplifies operations like inner products and the application of operators, making it essential for working with operators and their properties in quantum physics.
congrats on reading the definition of bra-ket notation. now let's actually learn it.
