If the second term is small, we can treat it as a perturbation on H (λ) so
if the wave function is non-degenerate, or a ’good’ linear combination of
degenerate states, we have

First, we take λ = ω:

∂ω ∂ω

= hV i (10)
ω
From the energy expression, we have
∂En 1
= n+ h̄ (11)
∂ω 2
Putting them together we get
1 1 En
hV i = n+ h̄ω = (12)

This agrees with the virial theorem result hT i = hV i = En /2.
Second, we’ll try λ = h̄:
∂En ∂H
= hψn ψn i (13)
∂ h̄ ∂ h̄

= − hψn ψn i (14)

= hT i (15)
h̄
From the energy expression, we have
∂En 1
= n+ ω (16)
∂ h̄ 2
Putting them together we get
1 1 En
hT i = n+ h̄ω = (17)

∂En ∂H

From the energy expression, we have

∂m
which leads to hT i = hV i, again in agreement with the virial theorem.
