See an illustrated explanation →subtraction
Subtract the following term or group from the preceding one. A leading minus marks a negative quantity.
subscript
The lower label selects a particular version, component, or indexed member of the quantity. For example, x₀ and xₜ can be values at different positions.
superscript
A raised number can be a power. When it is a label or bound, it selects a case or the upper limit of a sum; the formula’s structure distinguishes these uses.

What the article says around this equation
the standard two-level exchange solution, exact for all t under this Hamiltonian. From it, = (/2)[ - ] = (/2) , while is exactly time-independent — a general fact for any state evolving under its own generator, not special to this one — and equal here to e,g||e,g = /2 - /2 + 0 = 0 , since is purely off-diagonal in this basis. The ledger reading follows immediately:
