We present a time-dependent extension of logarithmic perturbation theory for nonrelativistic quantum dynamics governed by the Schr\"odinger equation, in which the logarithm of the wave function is expanded in powers of a coupling constant.…
The Floquet-Magnus expansion is a widely used tool to derive effective descriptions of time-periodic quantum systems by approximating their dynamics with a time-independent Hamiltonian. However, its standard formulation is, strictly…
Consider the wave equation $\partial_t^2u-\Delta_xu+V(t,x)u=0$, where $x\in\R^n$ with $n\geq3$ and $V(t,x)$ is $T$-periodic in time and decays exponentially in space. Let $ U(t,0)$ be the associated propagator and let…

We consider the Lax-Oleinik operator $\mathcal{T}$ associated with the non-stationary Hamilton-Jacobi equation $\partial_tu + H(t,x,\partial_xu) = \alpha_0$ for a Tonelli Hamiltonian $H$ and its \Mane critical value $\alpha_0$. It is known…
We construct time-dependent wave operators for Schr\"{o}dinger equations with long-range potentials on a manifold $M$ with asymptotically conic structure. We use the two space scattering theory formalism, and a reference operator on a space…
In the framework of any quantum theory in the Schroedinger picture a general operator time concept is given. For this purpose certain systems are emphasized as ideal quantum clocks. Their definition follows heuristically from a common…
We study the Floquet Hamiltonian: -i omega d/dt + H + V(t) as depending on the parameter omega. We assume that the spectrum of H is discrete, {h_m (m = 1..infinity)}, with h_m of multiplicity M_m. and that V is an Hermitian operator,…
We attack the specific time-dependent Hamiltonian problem H=-{1/2} (t_o/t)^a \partial_{xx} + (1/2) \omega^2 (t/t_o)^b x^2. This corresponds to a time-dependent mass (TM) Schr\"odinger equation. We give the specific transformations to a…
In (1+1)-dimensional quantum field theory, integrability is typically defined as the existence of an infinite number of local charges of different Lorentz spin, which commute with the Hamiltonian. A well known consequence of integrability…
We study the time-dependent Schr\"odinger operator $P = D_t + \Delta_g + V$ acting on functions defined on $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, where, using coordinates $z \in \mathbb{R}^n$ and $t \in \mathbb{R}$, $D_t$ denotes $-i \partial_t$, $\Delta_g$…
Rochberg's coboundary theorem provides conditions under which the equation $(I-T)y = x$ is solvable in $y$. Here $T$ is a unilateral shift on Hilbert space, $I$ is the identity operator and $x$ is a given vector. The conditions are…
We prove quantum ergodicity for a family of periodic Schr\"odinger operators $H$ on periodic graphs. This means that most eigenfunctions of $H$ on large finite periodic graphs are equidistributed in some sense, hence delocalized. Our…
By directly using the probability formulas of quantum trajectories, we construct an auxiliary open quantum system for a periodically driven open quantum system whose dynamics is governed by the Floquet quantum master equation. This…
Motivated by the quest for experimentally accessible dynamical probes of Floquet topological insulators, we formulate the linear response theory of a periodically driven system. We illustrate the applications of this formalism by giving…
For two self-adjoint operators $H,A$ we show that a general commutation relation of type $[H,\mathrm{i}A]=Q(H)+K$, in addition to regularity of $H$ and Kato-smoothness of $K$, guarantee pointwise in time decay rates of diverse order. The…
A bounded operator $T$ on a separable, complex Hilbert space is said to be odd symmetric if $I^*T^tI=T$ where $I$ is a real unitary satisfying $I^2=-1$ and $T^t$ denotes the transpose of $T$. It is proved that such an operator can always be…
A variational principle enabling one to compute individual Floquet states of a periodically time-dependent quantum system is formulated, and successfully tested against the benchmark system provided by the analytically solvable model of a…
In this manuscript, we deal with some particular type of homogeneous first order linear systems with variable coefficients, in which we provide qualitative properties of the solution. When the coefficients of the indeterminate functions are…
We work with small non-selfadjoint perturbations of a selfadjoint quantum Hamiltonian with two degrees of freedom, assuming that the principal symbol of the selfadjoint part is (classically) a nearly integrable system, together with a…
