> I have never heard this terminology, I have only heard Schrodinger's picture vs. Heisenberg's picture.

I wrote the QM article a very long time ago at this point, and I actually can't reconstruct at the moment why I used those two names! I've also heard Schrodinger and Heisenberg much more frequently. Might be worth an edit.

Maybe because Liouville and Hamilton, being mathematicians, are better known to the target audience than the physicists Schrödinger and Heisenberg?

I know the difference between mathematicians and theoretical physicists can be small, but I think that categorization is valid.

To verify my intuition, I checked Wikipedia. It calls

- Liouville a mathematician and engineer (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Liouville)

- Hamílton a mathematician, astronomer and physicist (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Rowan_Hamilton)

- Schrödinger a physicist (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erwin_Schrödinger)

- Heisenberg a theoretical physicist (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Werner_Heisenberg)
