Its job in the formula

HfH_f is one of the signed contributions combined to compute the quantity on the left.

The passage around this formula

A single case makes the term concrete and ties it to a result nearly a century old. Let HfH_f = (ℏ\hbarω0\omega_0/2)σz\sigma_z , a spin precessing about a static field at its Larmor frequency, and let U(t) = exp⁡(iωrt σz/2)\exp(i\omega_r t\,\sigma_z/2) describe a frame rotating about the same axis at rate ωr\omega_r . Since U(t) is built entirely from σz\sigma_z , it commutes with HfH_f , so UHfH_fU†U^\dagger = HfH_f…
