Phase factor

In physics and representation theory, a phase factor is a multiplier representing the phase of a wave or the phase difference between two quantities. It is formulated as a unit complex number, that is a complex number with absolute value 1. For a complex number written in polar form, such as r eiθ, the phase factor is the complex exponential, eiθ,: 24…
