On the Ehrenfest theorem of quantum mechanics

Gero Friesecke, Mario Koppen

Published 2009-07-10Version 1

We give a mathematically rigorous derivation of Ehrenfest's equations for the evolution of position and momentum expectation values, under general and natural assumptions which include atomic and molecular Hamiltonians with Coulomb interactions.
