I maxed out in college in Physical Chemistry, trying to understand Hamiltonians and eigen values, This stuff is... hard
Mathematicians tend to name important concepts after themselves, it totally throws people like me who do not see value in memorizing names and associating them with concepts. It would be better if things like “eigenvalues” were named for what they are and not after the German or French dude that discovered them.
Did you ever see the bumper sticker “Honk if you passed P-Chem” ?
