We show a new method for analyzing the time evolution of the Schrodinger wave function phi(x,t). We propose the decomposition of the Hamiltonian as: H(t)=Hp(t)+Hc(t), where Hp(t)is the operator which does not change the state and therefore…

Schroedinger's equation says that the Hamiltonian is the generator of time translations. This seems to imply that any reasonable definition of time operator must be conjugate to the Hamiltonian. Then both time and energy must have the same…
Hamiltonian operators are gauge dependent. For overcome this difficulty we reexamined the effect of a gauge transformation on Schr\"odinger and Dirac equations. We show that the gauge invariance of the operator…

Examples are given of non-Hermitian Hamiltonian operators which have a real spectrum. Some of the investigated operators are expressed in terms of the generators of the Weil-Heisenberg algebra. It is argued that the existence of an…
We analyze a class of dynamics of open quantum systems which is governed by the dynamical map mutually commuting at different times. Such evolution may be effectively described via spectral analysis of the corresponding time dependent…
The time evolution of black holes involves both the canonical equations of quantum gravity and the statistical mechanics of Hawking radiation, neither of which contains a time variable. In order to introduce the time, we apply the…
The problem of existence of a self-adjoint time operator conjugate to a Hamiltonian with SU(1,1) dynamical symmetry is investigated. In the space spanned by the eigenstates of the generator $K_3$ of the SU(1,1) group, the time operator for…
Quantum mechanical time operator is introduced following the parametric formulation of classical mechanics in the extended phase space. Quantum constraint on the extended quantum system is defined in analogy to the constraint of the…

An important aspect in understanding the dynamics in the context of deparametrized models of LQG is to obtain a sufficient control on the quantum evolution generated by a given Hamiltonian operator. More specifically, we need to be able to…
