Lie systems in Quantum Mechanics are studied from a geometric point of view. In particular, we develop methods to obtain time evolution operators of time-dependent Schrodinger equations of Lie type and we show how these methods explain…
Describing systems with non-Hermitian (NH) operators remains a challenge in quantum theory due to instabilities (e.g., exceptional points and decoherence) arising from interactions with the environment. We propose a framework to express the…
It is shown that in presence of certain external fields a well defined self-adjoint time operator exists, satisfying the standard canonical commutation relations with the Hamiltonian. Examples include uniform electric and gravitational…
We introduce a covariant canonical quantization for a particle in curved spacetime that tracks operator-ordering ambiguities. Parameterizing spatial and temporal ordering, we derive a Hermitian Hamiltonian with leading quantum-relativistic…
We introduce a novel numerical method to integrate partial differential equations representing the Hamiltonian dynamics of field theories. It is a multi-symplectic integrator that locally conserves the stress-energy tensor with an excellent…
The stress tensor for the quantized electromagnetic field is calculated in the region between a pair of dispersive, dielectric half-spaces. This generalizes the stress tensor for the Casimir energy to the case where the boundaries have…
We propose an efficient quantum algorithm for simulating the dynamics of general Hamiltonian systems. Our technique is based on a power series expansion of the time-evolution operator in its off-diagonal terms. The expansion decouples the…

The quantum kinetic equation used in the study of weak turbulence is reconsidered in the context of a theory with a generic quartic interaction. The expectation value of the time derivative of the mode number operators is computed in a…
The time-dependent Schrodinger equation (TDSE) is usually treated in real space in the textbook. However, it makes the numerical simulations of strong-field processes difficult due to the wide dispersion and fast oscillation of the electron…
In this work we intend to study a class of time-dependent quantum systems with non-Hermitian Hamiltonians, particularly those whose Hermitian counterpart are important for the comprehension of posed problems in quantum optics and quantum…
A global solution of the Schr\"odinger equation, obtained recently within the wave operator formalism for explicitly time-dependent Hamiltonians [J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 48, 225205 (2015)], is generalized to take into account the case of…
We propose a new method for simulating certain type of time-dependent Hamiltonian $H(t) = \sum_{i=1}^m \gamma_i(t) H_i$ where $\gamma_i(t)$ (and its higher order derivatives) is bounded, computable function of time $t$, and each $H_i$ is…
We derive the conformal Ward identities for the correlation functions of the Stress--Energy tensor in probabilistic Liouville Conformal Field Theory on compact Riemann surfaces by varying the correlation functions with respect to the…
Using the transformations from paper I, we show that the Schr\"odinger equations for: (1)systems described by quadratic Hamiltonians, (2) systems with time-varying mass, and (3) time-dependent oscillators, all have isomorphic Lie space-time…
This work introduces a new space $\T'_*$ of `vertex-smooth' states for use in the loop approach to quantum gravity. Such states provide a natural domain for Euclidean Hamiltonian constraint operators of the type introduced by Thiemann (and…
We propose the assumption of quantum mechanics on a discrete space and time, which implies the modification of mathematical expressions for some postulates of quantum mechanics. In particular we have a Hilbert space where the vectors are…
We develop a spectral cut-off construction of real-time oscillatory integrals associated with non-autonomous Hamiltonian evolution equations. Let \(H_0\) be a positive self-adjoint reference operator on a Hilbert space \(\Hilb\), and let…
We apply the method of flow equations to describe quantum systems subject to a time-periodic drive with a time-dependent envelope. The driven Hamiltonian is expressed in terms of its constituent Fourier harmonics with amplitudes that may…
