We present an application of a nonstandard approximate method---the finite-rank approximation---to solving the time-independent Schr\"odinger equation for a bound-state problem. The method is illustrated on the example of a…
We formulate a ''minimal'' interpretational scheme for fairly general (minisuperspace) quantum cosmological models. Admitting as few exact mathematical structure as is reasonably possible at the fundamental level, we apply approximate…
Wave Kinetic Equations (WKEs) are often used to describe the evolution of ensemble averaged wave amplitudes for nonlinear wave systems. In the present manuscript we describe a new approach to direct numerical simulation of solutions to…
Uniform asymptotic approximations are obtained for the prolate spheroidal wave functions, in the high-frequency case. The results are obtained by an application of certain existing asymptotic solutions of differential equations, and involve…
Quasinormal modes describe the ringdown of compact objects deformed by small perturbations. In generic theories of gravity that extend General Relativity, the linearized dynamics of these perturbations is described by a system of coupled…
The Schrodinger equation is incomplete, inherently unable to explain the collapse of the wavefunction caused by measurement; a fundamental issue known as the quantum measurement problem. Quantum mechanics is generally constrained by the…
We derive an analytical expression of a Wigner function that approximately describes the time evolution of the one-dimensional motion of a particle in a nonharmonic potential. Our method involves two exact frame transformations, accounting…

Regarding the limit hbar-->0 as the classical limit of quantum mechanics seems to be silly because hbar is a definite constant of physics, but it was successfully used in the derivation of the WKB approximation. A superseded version of the…
The WKB approximation for deformed space with minimal length is considered. The Bohr-Sommerfeld quantization rule is obtained. A new interesting feature in presence of deformation is that the WKB approximation is valid for intermediate…
We analyze the polymer representation of quantum mechanics within the deformation quantization formalism. In particular, we construct the Wigner function and the star-product for the polymer representation as a distributional limit of the…
It has been recently realized that, in the case of polynomial potentials, the exact WKB method can be reformulated in terms of a system of TBA equations. In this paper we study this method in various examples. We develop a graphical…

In this contribution we present an overview of our work on the numerical simulation of the perturbation of a black hole space-time by incoming gravitational waves. The formulation we use is based on Friedrich's general conformal equations…
The Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin (WKB) approximation is frequently used to explore the mechanics of the cochlea. As opposed to numerical strategies, the WKB approximation facilitates analysis of model results through interpretable closed-form…
The uniformly valid approximation to solutions of the radial Schr\"odinger equation with power-law potentials are obtained by means of the explicit summation of the leading constituent WKB series.
A new approach to find exact solutions to one--dimensional quantum mechanical systems is devised. The scheme is based on the introduction of a potential function for the wavefunction, and the equation it satisfies. We recover known…
We consider a version of the stationary phase method in one dimension of A. Erd\'elyi, allowing the phase to have stationary points of non-integer order and the amplitude to have integrable singularities. After having completed the original…
