For any finite link $L$ in $\mathbb{R}^3$ we prove the existence of a high-energy complex-valued eigenfunction of the hydrogen atom such that its nodal set contains a union of connected components diffeomorphic to $L$. This problem goes…
In this paper we show how to place Michael Berry's discovery of knotted zeros in the quantum states of hydrogen in the context of general knot theory and in the context of our formulations for quantum knots. Berry gave a time independent…
We evaluate the Berry phase for a "missing" family of the square integrable wavefunctions for the linear harmonic oscillator, which cannot be derived by the separation of variables (in a natural way). Instead, it is obtained by the action…
We prove that, given any knot $\gamma$ in a compact 3-manifold M, there exists a Riemannian metric on M such that there is a complex-valued eigenfunction u of the Laplacian, corresponding to the first nontrivial eigenvalue, whose nodal set…
Non-Hermitian systems exhibit spectral and topological phenomena absent in Hermitian physics; however, their geometric characterization is hindered by an intrinsic ambiguity rooted in the eigenspace of non-Hermitian Hamiltonians, which…
Knots have a twisted history in quantum physics. They were abandoned as failed models of atoms. Only much later was the connection between knot invariants and Wilson loops in topological quantum field theory discovered. Here we show that…
We show the existence of Lorentz invariant Berry phases generated, in the Stueckleberg-Horwitz-Piron manifestly covariant quantum theory (SHP), by a perturbed four dimensional harmonic oscillator. These phases are associated with a…
We show that a polynomial H(N) of degree N of a harmonic oscillator hamiltonian allows us to devise a fully solvable continuous quantum system for which the first N discrete energy eigenvalues can be chosen at will. In general such a choice…
The zeros of the eigenfunctions of self-adjoint Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue problems interlace. For these problems interlacing is crucial for completeness. For the complex Sturm-Liouville problem associated with the Schrodinger equation for…
In this note we consider high energy eigenfunctions of the harmonic oscillator in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and prove that any invariant measure on the energy surface can be written as a weak limit of eigenfunctions.
Quantum harmonic oscillators linearly coupled through coordinates and momenta, represented by the Hamiltonian $ {\hat H}=\sum^2_{i=1}\left( \frac{ {\hat p}^{2}_i}{2 m_i } + \frac{m_i \omega^2_i}{2} x^2_i\right) +{\hat H}_{int} $, where the…
We study the asymptotic laws for the number, Betti numbers, and isotopy classes of connected components of zero sets of real Gaussian random fields, where the random zero sets almost surely consist of submanifolds of codimension greater…
In this paper we show how the quantum mechanics of the inverted harmonic oscillator can be mapped to the quantum mechanics of a particle in a super-critical inverse square potential. We demonstrate this by relating both of these systems to…
We present an ab-initio real-time-based computational approach to study nonlinear optical properties in condensed matter systems that is especially suitable for crystalline solids and periodic nanostructures. The equations of motion and the…
We study chaotic eigenfunctions in wedge-shaped and rectangular regions using a generalization of Berry's conjecture. An expression for the two-point correlation function is derived and verified numerically.
We determine the energy eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the harmonic oscillator where the coordinates and momenta are assumed to obey the modified commutation relations [x_i,p_j]=i hbar[(1+ beta p^2) delta_{ij} + beta' p_i p_j]. These…
