A scattering process can be described by suitably closing the system and considering the first return map from the entrance onto itself. This scattering map may be singular and discontinuous, but it will be measure preserving as a…
We consider the problem of Arnold's diffusion for nearly integrable isochronous Hamiltonian systems. We prove a shadowing theorem which improves the known estimates for the diffusion time. We also justify for three time scales systems that…
Wigner's seminal work on the Poincar\'e group revealed one of the fundamental principles of quantum theory: symmetry groups are projectively represented. The condensed-matter counterparts of the Poincar\'e group could be the spacetime…
For autonomous systems it is well known how to extract tunneling probabilities from wavepacket calculations. Here we present a corresponding approach for periodically time-dependent Hamiltonians, valid at all frequencies, field strengths,…
We examine Hamiltonian formalism on Euclidean Snyder space. The latter corresponds to a lattice in the quantum theory. For any given dynamical system, it may not be possible to identify time with a real number parametrizing the evolution in…
We develop a formalism for the scattering of a particle on the $q$-deformed Euclidean space. We write down $q$-versions of the Lippmann-Schwinger equation. Their iterative solutions for a weak scattering potential lead us to $q$-versions of…

We develop a new computational tool and framework for characterizing the scattering of photons by energy-nonconserving Hamiltonians into unidirectional (chiral) waveguides, for example, with coherent pulsed excitation. The temporal…
We discover that the energy-integral of time-delay is an adiabatic invariant in quantum scattering theory and corresponds classically to the phase space volume. The integral thus found provides a quantization condition for resonances,…
This paper summarizes and generalizes a recently proposed mathematical framework that unifies the standard formalisms of special relativity and quantum mechanics. The framework is based on Hilbert spaces H of functions of four space-time…
No, we cannot! The concept of Wigner time delay was introduced in scattering theory to quantify the delay or advance of an incoming particle in its interaction with the scattering potential. It was assumed that this concept can be…
Quantum canonical transformations corresponding to time-dependent diffeomorphisms of the configuration space are studied. A special class of these transformations which correspond to time-dependent dilatations is used to identify a…
We study the effect of time-dependent, non-conservative perturbations on the dynamics along homoclinic orbits to a normally hyperbolic invariant manifold. We assume that the unperturbed system is Hamiltonian, and the normally hyperbolic…

Motivated by recent experimental implementations of artificial gauge fields for gases of cold atoms, we study the scattering properties of particles that are subjected to time-periodic Hamiltonians. Making use of Floquet theory, we focus on…
One-dimensional discrete-time quantum walks show a rich spectrum of topological phases that have so far been exclusively analysed in momentum space. In this work we introduce an alternative approach to topology which is based on the…
