We study the closed Hamiltonian dynamics of a free particle moving on a ring, over one section of which it interacts linearly with a single harmonic oscillator. On the basis of numerical and analytical evidence, we conjecture that at small…
A harmonic oscillator with time-dependent mass $m(t)$ and a time-dependent (squared) frequency $\omega^2(t)$ occurs in the modelling of several physical systems. It is generally believed that systems, with $m(t)>0$ and $\omega^2(t)>0$…
We study the Hamiltonian dynamics of the spherical spin model with fully-connected two-body interactions drawn from a Gaussian probability distribution. In the statistical physics framework, the potential energy is of the so-called $p=2$…
We study the Hamiltonian dynamics and spectral theory of spin-oscillators. Because of their rich structure, spin-oscillators display fairly general properties of integrable systems with two degrees of freedom. Spin-oscillators have…
Starting from a microscopic theory, we derive a master equation for a harmonic oscillator coupled to a bath of non-interacting oscillators. We follow a non-perturbative approach, proposed earlier by us for the free Brownian particle. The…
Some of the most enduring questions in physics--including the quantum measurement problem and the quantization of gravity--involve the interaction of a quantum system with a classical environment. Two linearly coupled harmonic oscillators…
We report the experimental discovery of a self-assembled capsule, with density set by interfacial glass beads and an internal bubble, that automatically performs regular oscillations up and down a vial in response to a temperature gradient.…
An N-dimensional position-dependent mass Hamiltonian (depending on a parameter \lambda) formed by a curved kinetic term and an intrinsic oscillator potential is considered. It is shown that such a Hamiltonian is exactly solvable for any…

We consider two-dimensional spin-orbit coupled atomic Bose-Einstein condensate in a radially-periodic potential. The system supports different types of stable self-sustained states including radially-symmetric vorticity-carrying modes with…
We decorate the one-dimensional conic oscillator $\frac{1}{2} \left[-\frac{d^{2} }{dx^{2} } + \left|x \right| \right]$ with a point impurity of either $\delta$-type, or local $\delta'$-type or even nonlocal $\delta'$-type. All the three…
The harmonic oscillator as a distinguished dynamical system can be defined not only on the Euclidean plane but also on the sphere and on the hyperbolic plane, and more generally on any configuration space with constant curvature and with a…
The investigation of the generalized coherent states for oscillator-like systems connected with given family of orthogonal polynomials is continued. In this work we consider oscillators connected with Meixner and Meixner-Pollaczek…
A new model for the finite one-dimensional harmonic oscillator is proposed based upon the algebra u(2)_{\alpha}. This algebra is a deformation of the Lie algebra u(2) extended by a parity operator, with deformation parameter {\alpha}. A…
The problem of one pair of identical nucleons sitting in ${\cal N}$ single particle levels of a potential well and interacting through the pairing force is treated introducing even Grassmann variables. The eigenvectors are analytically…
We consider the Hamiltonian for a charged particle in a harmonic potential in the presence of a magnetic field. The most symmetric case depends on one parameter, the variation of which leads from a spectrum bounded from below to an…
One of the most challenging problems in solid state systems is the microscopic analysis of electronic correlations. A paramount minimal model that encodes correlation effects is the Hubbard Hamiltonian, which -- albeit its simplicity -- is…
We consider multiscale Hamiltonian systems in which harmonic oscillators with several high frequencies are coupled to a slow system. It is shown that the oscillatory energy is nearly preserved over long times eps^{-N} for arbitrary N>1,…
Stability criteria are given for linear periodic Hamiltonian systems with impulse effect. A Lyapunov type inequality and a disconjugacy criterion are also established. The results improve the ones in the literature for such systems.
