In the geometry of quantum-mechanical processes, the time-varying curvature coefficient of a quantum evolution is specified by the magnitude squared of the covariant derivative of the tangent vector to the state vector. In particular, the…

The states of an open quantum system interact ("talk") with one another via the extended environment into which the localized system is embedded. This interaction is mediated by the source term of the Schr\"odinger equation which describes…

The study of quantum systems evolving from initial states to distinguishable, orthogonal final states is important for information processing applications such as quantum computing and quantum metrology. However, for most unitary evolutions…

Non-classical states that are characterized by their non-positive quasi-probabilities in phase space are known to be the basis for various quantum effects. In this work, we investigate the interrelation between the non-classicality and…

Ever since the formulation of quantum mechanics, there is very little understanding of the process of the collapse of a wavefunction. We have proposed a dynamical model to emulate the measurement postulates of quantum mechanics. We…

I propose a version of quantum mechanics featuring a discrete and finite number of states that is plausibly a model of the real world. The model is based on standard unitary quantum theory of a closed system with a finite-dimensional…

A new framework for noncommutative complex geometry on quantum homogeneous spaces is introduced. The main ingredients used are covariant differential calculi and Takeuchi's categorical equivalence for faithfully flat quantum homogeneous…

When an entangled state evolves under local unitaries, the entanglement in the state remains fixed. Here we show the dynamical phase acquired by an entangled state in such a scenario can always be understood as the sum of the dynamical…

We provide a unified approach for finding the coherent states of various deformed algebras, including quadratic, Higgs and q-deformed algebras, which are relevant for many physical problems. For the non-compact cases, coherent states, which…

Garrison and Wright showed that upon undergoing cyclic quantum evolution a meta-stable state acquires both a geometric phase and a geometric decay probability. This is described by a complex geometric ``phase'' associated with the cyclic…

Starting from the Schr\"odinger-equation of a composite system, we derive unified dynamics of a classical harmonic system coupled to an arbitrary quantized system. The classical subsystem is described by random phase-space coordinates…

Recently, much research has been carried out on Hamiltonians that are not Hermitian but are symmetric under space-time reflection, that is, Hamiltonians that exhibit PT symmetry. Investigations of the Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue problem…

The complex-valued quantum mechanics considers quantum motion on the complex plane instead of on the real axis, and studies the variations of a particle complex position, momentum and energy along a complex trajectory. On the basis of…

Coherent states play an important role in quantum mechanics because of their unique properties under time evolution. Here we explore this concept for one-dimensional repulsive nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations, which describe weakly…

Klauder's recent generalization of the harmonic oscillator coherent states [J. Phys. A 29, L293 (1996)] is applicable only in non-degenerate systems, requiring some additional structure if applied to systems with degeneracies. The author…

Using the transformations from paper I, we show that the Schr\"odinger equations for: (1)systems described by quadratic Hamiltonians, (2) systems with time-varying mass, and (3) time-dependent oscillators, all have isomorphic Lie space-time…

We envisage many-body systems that can be described by quantum spin-chain Hamiltonians with a trivial separable eigenstate. For generic Hamiltonians, such a state represents a quantum scar. We show that, typically, a…

Multiple quantum coherences are typically characterised by their coherence number and the number of spins that make up the state, though only the coherence number is normally measured. We present a simple set of measurements that extend our…

We study the total (dynamical plus geometrical (Berry)) phase of cyclic quantum motion for coherent states over homogeneous K\"ahler manifolds X=G/H, which can be considered as the phase spaces of classical systems and which are, in…

Non-Hermitian quantum field theories are a promising tool to study open quantum systems. These theories preserve unitarity if PT-symmetry is respected, and in that case an equivalent Hermitian description exists via the so-called Dyson map.…
