Generalized Reducibility and Growth of Sobolev Norms

We introduce the concept of {\it generalized reducibility}, which provides a flexible framework for analyzing the long-time behavior of solutions to quadratic quantum Hamiltonians. As an application of this notion, for many prescribed sub-exponential growth rates $f(t)$, either monotone or oscillatory, we explicitly construct time-decaying perturbations of the one-dimensional quantum harmonic oscillator such that the Sobolev norms of solutions grow at the rate $f(t)$.
