Vandeman, you are an idiot. Killing vectors are used in Riemanian
geometries (curved spaced time, i.e., in physics applications, general
relativity). We aren't trying to formulate a quantum field theory for
gravity or anything like that. We were, rather, discussing the
interaction of matter with low levels of electromagnetic radiation at
a frequency of 1 or 2 gigahertz, something we understood very well
during the first half of the 20th century.
As to the Shroedinger equation, I'm not going to play games with you
where you try to waste my time by trying to get me to write a text
book and publish it on usenet (where I'd also have to deal with the
difficulty of rendering mathematical notation in ASCII text), only to
have you ignore it anyway.
