Solutions to explicit time-dependent problems in quantum mechanics are rare. In fact, all known solutions are coupled to specific properties of the Hamiltonian and may be divided into two categories: One class consists of time-dependent…

In a number of physically relevant contexts, a quantum system interacting with a decohering environment is simultaneously subjected to time-dependent controls and its dynamics is thus described by a time-dependent Lindblad master equation.…
The center of mass motion of trapped ions and neutral atoms is suitable for approximation by a time-dependent driven quantum harmonic oscillator whose frequency and driving strength may be controlled with high precision. We show the time…
The normal modes of a trapped ion crystal are derived using an approach based on the Hermitian properties of the systems dynamical matrix. This method is equivalent to the standard Bogoliubov method, but for classical systems it is arguably…
We propose and explore a scheme that leads to an infinite series of time- dependent Dyson maps which associate different Hermitian Hamiltonians to a uniquely specified time-dependent non-Hermitian Hamiltonian. We identify the underlying…
By using dynamical invariants theory, Hassoul et al. [1,2] investigate the quantum dynamics of two (2D) and three (3D) dimensional time-dependent coupled oscillators. They claim that, in the 2D case, introducing two pairs of annihilation…
The evolution of a system of chemical reactions can be studied, in the eikonal approximation, by means of a Hamiltonian dynamical system. The fixed points of this dynamical system represent the different states in which the chemical system…

We analyze the time-dependence of N-level systems under the Rotating Wave Approximation and dipole selection rules. Such systems can be solved straightforwardly if the Hamiltonian can be transformed into a time-independent form. The…
