We consider a class of Hermitian Hamiltonians with position-dependent mass $H=((m^alpha)p(m^beta)p(m^alpha))/2+\V$ with $2(alpha)+\beta=-1$. We apply these Hamiltonians to different piecewise flat potentials and masses (step, barrier, well…

Generally, natural scientific problems are so complicated that one has to establish some effective perturbation or nonperturbation theories with respect to some associated ideal models. In this Letter, a new theory that combines…
Effective field theories have often been applied to systems with deeply inelastic reactions that produce particles with large momenta outside the domain of validity of the effective theory. The effects of the deeply inelastic reactions have…

We present a new theorem describing stable solutions for a driven quantum system. The theorem, coined `inertial theorem', is applicable for fast driving, provided the acceleration rate is small. The theorem states that in the inertial limit…
In the conventional quantum mechanics (i.e., hermitian QM) the adia- batic theorem for systems subjected to time periodic fields holds only for bound systems and not for open ones (where ionization and dissociation take place) [D. W. Hone,…
