A sharp definition of what "adiabatic" means is given; it is then shown that the time-dependent expectation value of a quantum-mechanical observable in the adiabatic limit can be expressed -- in many cases -- by means of the appropriate…
We prove the existence of a unitary transformation that enables two arbitrarily given Hamiltonians in the same Hilbert space to be transformed into one another. The result is straightforward yet, for example, it lays the foundation to…
A new integrable model which is a variant of the one-dimensional Hubbard model is proposed. The integrability of the model is verified by presenting the associated quantum R-matrix which satisfies the Yang-Baxter equation. We argue that the…
This paper is concerned with the inverse electromagnetic scattering problem for anisotropic media. We use the interior resonant modes to develop an inverse scattering scheme for imaging the scatterer. The whole procedure consists of three…
We calculate the optical spectra of silicon and germanium in the adiabatic time-dependent density functional formalism, making use of kinetic energy density-dependent (meta-GGA) exchange-correlation functionals. We find excellent agreement…

It is known that for multi-level time-dependent quantum systems one can construct superadiabatic representations in which the coupling between separated levels is exponentially small in the adiabatic limit. For a family of two-state systems…

We discuss the potential scattering on the noncompact star graph. The Schr\"{o}dinger operator with the short-range potential localizing in a neighborhood of the graph vertex is considered. We study the asymptotic behavior the corresponding…
We consider a quantum system S interacting with another system S and susceptible of being absorbed by S. The effective, dissipative dynamics of S is supposed to be generated by an abstract pseudo-Hamiltonian of the form H = H0 + V -- iC *…
We control the direction and magnitude of thermal radiation, between two bodies at equal temperature (in thermal equilibrium), by invoking the concept of adiabatic pumping. Specifically, within a resonant near-field electromagnetic heat…
We consider the one-dimensional half-filled Hubbard model. We show that the excitation spectrum is given by the scattering states of four elementary excitations, which form the fundamental representation of $SU(2)\times SU(2)$. We determine…
We consider a time-harmonic wave problem, appearing for example in water-waves and in acoustics, in a setting such that the analysis reduces to the study of a 2D waveguide problem with a Neumann boundary condition. The geometry is symmetric…
Due to the chiral nature of the Dirac equation, overlying of an electrical superlattice (SL) can open new Dirac points on the Fermi-surface of the energy spectrum. These lead to novel low-excitation physical phenomena. A typical example for…
We develop a numerical scheme to construct the scattering ($S$) matrix for optical microcavities, including the special cases with parity-time and other non-Hermitian symmetries. This scheme incorporates the explicit form of a nonlocal…
We study directed transport in periodically forced scattering systems in the regime of fast and strong driving where the dynamics is mixed to chaotic and adiabatic approximations do not apply. The model employed is a square potential well…
I propose that the proper framework for gravitational scattering theory is the rep- resentation theory of the super-BMS algebra of Awada, Gibbons and Shaw[1], and its generalizations. Certain representation spaces of these algebras…
