    1. The summary proves that a linear combination of solutions to the Schrödinger equation is also a solution. 2. The summary shows that a Gaussian wavefunction representing the ground state of a simple harmonic oscillator satisfies the time-dependent Schrödinger equation for a harmonic potential. 3. The summary states that applying a phase factor to a wavefunction shifts its mean momentum by the same phase factor amount.
