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 $\omega^2(t)>0$…

The symmetries play important roles in physical systems. We study the symmetries of a Hamiltonian system by investigating the asymmetry of the Hamiltonian with respect to certain algebras. We define the asymmetry of an operator with respect…
It is known that the standard and the inverted harmonic oscillator are different. Replacing thus of {\omega} by i{\omega} in the regular oscillator is necessary going to give the inverted oscillator H^{r}. This replacement would lead to…
The quantum quartic anharmonic oscillator with the Hamiltonian $H=\frac{1}{2}\left( p^{2}+x^{2}\right) +\lambda x^{4}$ is a classical and fundamental model that plays a key role in various branches of physics, including quantum mechanics,…
The impact of an anti-unitary symmetry on the spectrum of non-hermitean operators is studied. Wigner's normal form of an anti-unitary operator is shown to account for the spectral properties of non-hermitean, PT-symmetric Hamiltonians. Both…
A generalized non-Hermitian oscillator Hamiltonian is proposed that consists of additional linear terms which break PT-symmetry explicitly. The model is put into an equivalent Hermitian form by means of a similarity transformation and the…
Using the theory of self-adjoint extensions, we construct all the possible hamiltonians describing the non relativistic Aharonov-Bohm effect. In general the resulting hamiltonians are not rotationally invariant so that the angular momentum…
We examine a concrete realization of the quantum Weyl algebra and expand it to first order. From here we apply the resulting algebra to a quantum harmonic oscillator in its ground state and observe how a slightly noncommutative space…
We analyze recent results for a harmonic oscillator in an environment with a pointlike defect. We show that the allowed oscillator frequencies predicted by the authors stem from a misinterpretation of the exact solutions of a conditionally…
Selftrapping has been traditionally studied on the assumption that quasiparticles interact with harmonic phonons and that this interaction is linear in the displacement of the phonon. To complement recent semiclassical studies of…
We investigate a quantum mechanical harmonic oscillator based on the extended Snyder model. This realization of the Snyder model is constructed as a quantum phase space generated by $D$ spatial coordinates and $D(D-1)/2$ tensorial degrees…
Distinguished selfadjoint extensions of operators which are not semibounded can be deduced from the positivity of the Schur Complement (as a quadratic form). In practical applications this amounts to proving a Hardy-like inequality.…
While dealing in [1] with the supersymmetry of a tridiagonal Hamiltonian H, we have proved that its partner Hamiltonian H(+) also have a tridiagonal matrix representation in the same basis and that the polynomials associated with the…
We study the problem when an almost commuting $n$-tuple self-adjoint operators in an infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space $H$ is close to an $n$-tuple of commuting self-adjoint operators on $H.$ We give an affirmative answer to the…
We study a class of quantum two-dimensional models with complex potentials of specific form. They can be considered as the generalization of a recently studied model with quadratic interaction not amenable to conventional separation of…
We study ground states of two-component condensates in a harmonic trap. We prove that in the strongly coupled and weakly interacting regime, the two components segregate while a symmetry breaking occurs. More precisely, we show that when…
The unitary operator which transforms a harmonic oscillator system of time-dependent frequency into that of a simple harmonic oscillator of different time-scale is found, with and without an inverse-square potential. It is shown that for…
We investigate some cosmological consequences of a vector-tensor theory where an Abelian symmetry in the vector sector is slightly broken by a mass term and by ghost-free derivative self-interactions. When studying cosmological expansion in…
The difference and similarity between the velocity- and position-Verlet integrators are discussed from the viewpoint of their Hamiltonian representations for both linear and nonlinear systems. For a harmonic oscillator, the exact…
