Uncertainty Principle

Background: In this problem you will prove that the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle (HUP) follows directly from the operator formalism which we developed from the de Broglie hypothesis!!! You may regard this proof as either one confirmation that our formalism is consistent with our experimental observations of the HUP or as the precise mathematical link between the Davisson-Germer/G.P. Thomson observations that and the HUP statement that .
