In this video we do a really easy proof that the momentum operator in quantum mechanics is hermitian. Understanding the momentum operator is key in quantum mechanics, so understanding how we prove that it is hermitian is important

nice explanation but I think you forgot to emit the minus at the end when you canceled it out when doing uv - u'v because the complex conj of -ihf is ihf* right?

What?
* Why cancelling dx with dx?
* Why omitting the - sign in the integration by-parts formula? if because complex conjugating i, then in what step you exactly took the complex conjugate of i and why??

Thanks.

Very poorly explained, you cant just cancel the dx’s with no explanation as to why or how that’s valid.

what happens to the minus sign ? uv- integral of vdu
