Quantum effects arising from manifestly broken time-reversal symmetry are investigated using time-dependent perturbation theory in a simple model. The forward time and the backward time Hamiltonians are taken to be different and hence the…

We consider the Hamiltonian $H$ of a 3D spinless non-relativistic quantum particle subject to parallel constant magnetic and non-constant electric field. The operator $H$ has infinitely many eigenvalues of infinite multiplicity embedded in…

In this article we study the stability problem for positive quaternion-K\"ahler manifolds. We give a description of infinitesimal Einstein deformations and destabilising directions in terms of Laplace eigenfunctions and a special class of…

Fermi's golden rule defines the transition rate between weakly coupled states and can thus be used to describe a multitude of molecular processes including electron-transfer reactions and light-matter interaction. However, it can only be…

The probability of the events that the final states are detected with or interact with the nucleus in a finite time interval T was found to be, $P=\text T \Gamma_0 +P^{(d)}$. $\Gamma_0$ is computed with Fermi's golden rule, and does not…

Quantum physics is generally concerned with real eigenvalues due to the unitarity of time evolution. With the introduction of $\mathcal{PT}$ symmetry, a widely accepted consensus is that, even if the Hamiltonian of the system is not…

We study the dephasing of fermions interacting with a fluctuating transverse gauge field. The divergence of the imaginary part of the fermion self energy at finite temperatures is shown to result from a breakdown of Fermi's golden rule due…
