what is mathematical difference/relation between an hermitian operator $\hat A$ and a vector $\vec A$?

    I'm having a hard time guessing why you think they are similar enough you have to ask this question. Can you include your thoughts leading up to the question?2012-06-08

These are quite different objects. You can apply an operator (Hermitian or not) to a vector to obtain another vector, in fact Hermitian operators are often represented by matrices.
