The classical theorems about singular perturbation reduction (due to Tikhonov and Fenichel) are concerned with convergence on a compact time interval (in slow time) as a small parameter approaches zero. For unbounded time intervals…
All elementary Hamiltonians in nature are expected to be invariant under rotation. Despite this restriction, we usually assume that any arbitrary measurement or unitary time evolution can be implemented on a physical system, an assumption…
