Hermitian function

A hermitian function is like a mathematical formula that generally helps us to understand different kinds of things like electricity or magnetic fields. It is used to describe how these things behave by using numbers and symbols. For example, you can use a hermitian function to figure out how electricity will move through a wire or what kind of magnetic field you will get. All elementary particles, like electrons or protons, have their own hermitian functions that help scientists figure out how they move through space.
