[docs] class HamiltonianModel(GeneratorModel): r"""A model of a Hamiltonian for the Schrodinger equation. This class represents a Hamiltonian as a time-dependent decomposition the form: .. math:: H(t) = H_d + \sum_j s_j(t) H_j, where :math:`H_j` are Hermitian operators, :math:`H_d` is the static component, and the :math:`s_j(t)` are either :class:`~qiskit_dynamics.signals.Signal` objects or numerical constants. Constructing a :class:`~qiskit_dynamics.models.HamiltonianModel` requires specifying the above decomposition, e.g.: .. code-block:: python hamiltonian = HamiltonianModel( static_operator=static_operator, operators=operators, signals=signals ) This class inherits most functionality from :class:`GeneratorModel`, with the following modifications: * The operators :math:`H_d` and :math:`H_j` are assumed and verified to be Hermitian. * Rotating frames are dealt with assuming the structure of the Schrodinger equation. I.e. Evaluating the Hamiltonian :math:`H(t)` in a frame :math:`F = -iH_0`, evaluates the expression :math:`e^{-tF}H(t)e^{tF} - H_0`.
