Quantum speed limits (QSLs) provide lower bounds on the minimum time required for a process to unfold by using a distance between quantum states and identifying the speed of evolution or an upper bound to it. We introduce a generalization…

Recently, the notion of a quantum acceleration limit has been proposed for any unitary time evolution of quantum systems governed by arbitrary nonstationary Hamiltonians. This limit articulates that the rate of change over time of the…

The presence of noise or the interaction with an environment can radically change the dynamics of observables of an otherwise isolated quantum system. We derive a bound on the speed with which observables of open quantum systems evolve.…

We conjecture a chaos energy bound, an upper bound on the energy dependence of the Lyapunov exponent for any classical/quantum Hamiltonian mechanics and field theories. The conjecture states that the Lyapunov exponent $\lambda(E)$ grows no…

We prove an abstract result giving a $\langle t \rangle^\varepsilon$ upper bound on the growth of the Sobolev norms of a time-dependent Schr\"odinger equation of the form ${i} \dot \psi = H_0 \psi + V (t)\psi$. Here $H_0$ is assumed to be…
