Abstract

Motivated by recent advances in quantum dynamics, we investigate the dynamics of the system with SU(1,1)SU(1,1) symmetry. Instead of performing the time-ordered integral for the evolution operator of the time-dependent Hamiltonian, we show that the time evolution operator can be expressed as an SU(1,1)SU(1,1) group element. Since the SU(1,1)SU(1,1) group describes the "rotation" on a hyperbolic surface, the dynamics can be visualized on a Poincar\'e disk, a stereographic projection of the upper hyperboloid. As an example, we present the trajectory of the revival of Bose-Einstein condensation and that of the scale-invariant Fermi gas on the Poincar\'e disk. Further considering the quantum gas in the oscillating lattice, we also study the dynamics of the system with time-dependent single-particle dispersion. Our results are hopefully to be checked in current experiments.
