In the coherent state of the harmonic oscillator, the probability density is that of the ground state subjected to an oscillation along a classical trajectory. Senitzky and others pointed out that there are states of the harmonic oscillator…

We describe a general method that enables us to obtain all the singular terms of helicity amplitudes of n-parton processes at one loop. The algorithm uses helicity amplitudes at tree level and simple color algebra. We illustrate the method…

Here we extend a recent review (Physics Reports {\bf 521}, 205 (2012)) of amplitude death, namely the suppression of oscillations due to the coupling interactions between nonlinear dynamical systems. This is an important emergent phenomenon…
We consider a quasi-one-dimensional two-component Bose-Einstein condensate subject to a coherent coupling between its components, such as realized in spin-orbit coupled condensates. We study how nonlinearity modifies the dynamics of the…

We reproduce the sub-exponential decoherence of one-dimensional quasicondensates observed in recent experiments. Counter-intuitively, the quasicondensates may decohere even when stongly coupled, if the temperature is large enough or the…
Unique set of coherent states for the anharmonic oscillator is obtained by requiring i. under the quantum mechanical time evolution a coherent state evolves into another, governed by trajectory in the classical phase space (of a related…
In an earlier paper we have proposed a novel method to compute the decay width for a general $1\to n$ cascade decay where the propagators are off-shell and may be of different spins. Here, we extend our algorithm to accommodate those decays…
