In this paper, we reformulate the semi-classical Schr\"odinger equation in the presence of electromagnetic field by the Gaussian wave packets transform. With this approach, the highly oscillatory Schr\"odinger equation is equivalently…

We study non-relativistic propagation of Gaussian wave packets in one-dimensional Eckart potential, a barrier, or a well. In the picture used, the transmitted wave packet results from interference between the copies of the freely…
The asymptotic wave speed for FKPP type reaction-diffusion equations on a class of infinite random metric trees are considered. We show that a travelling wavefront emerges, provided that the reaction rate is large enough. The wavefront…
An axiomatic theory of classical nondissipative waves is proposed that is constructed based on the definition of a wave as a multidimensional oscillator. Waves are represented as abstract vectors $|\psi\rangle$ in the appropriately defined…
Radio waves propagating from distant pulsars in the interstellar medium (ISM), are refracted by electron density inhomogeneities, so that the intensity of observed pulses fluctuates with time. The theory relating the observed pulse…
We derive an exact analytical solution to the time-dependent Schr\"odinger equation for transmission of a Gaussian wave packet through an arbitrary potential of finite range. We consider the situation where the initial Gaussian wave packet…

It is a deceptively simple question to ask how acoustic disturbances propagate in a non--homogeneous flowing fluid. If the fluid is barotropic and inviscid, and the flow is irrotational (though it may have an arbitrary time dependence),…
We continue our earlier investigation of the backreaction problem in semiclassical gravity with the Schwinger-Keldysh or closed-time-path (CTP) functional formalism using the language of the decoherent history formulation of quantum…
We (re)cosider the propagation of small disturbances (sound waves) in the presence of a pinned irrotational vortex in a superfluid with the help of the formalism of acoustic spacetimes. We give closed formulas for the scattering angle for…
We study the time-sliced thawed Gaussian propagation method, which was recently proposed for solving the time-dependent Schr\"odinger equation. We introduce a triplet of quadrature-based analysis, synthesis and re-initialization operators…
This paper first focuses on deriving an alternative approach for proving an extremal entropy inequality (EEI), originally presented in [11]. The proposed approach does not rely on the channel enhancement technique, and has the advantage…
We describe the quantum mechanical spreading of a Gaussian wave packet by means of the semiclassical WKB approximation of Berry and Balazs. We find that the time scale $\tau$ on which this approximation breaks down in a chaotic system is…
The irreducible representations of the extended Galilean group are used to derive the symmetric and asymmetric wave equations. It is shown that among these equations only a new asymmetric wave equation is fundamental. By being fundamental…
Consider the scattering of an acoustic plane wave by a bounded elastic obstacle which is immersed in an open space filled with a homogeneous medium. This paper concerns the mathematical analysis of the coupled two- and three-dimensional…
It is well known that the Gaussian wave packet dynamics can be written in terms of Hamilton equations in the extended phase space that is twice as large as in the corresponding classical system. We construct several generalizations of this…
In this paper we consider an acoustic problem of wave propagation through a discontinuous medium. The problem is reduced to the dissipative wave equation with distributional dissipation. We show that this problem has a so-called very weak…
We explore the propagation and transformation of electromagnetic waves through spatially homogeneous yet smoothly time-dependent media within the framework of classical electrodynamics. By modelling the smooth transition, occurring during a…
We present a novel approach for simulating acoustic (pressure) wave propagation across different media separated by a diffuse interface through the use of a weak compressibility formulation. Our method builds on our previous work on an…
