This work is an extended version of the paper arXiv:0803.2669v1[math-ph], in which the main results were announced. We consider certain classical diffusion process for a wave function on the phase space. It is shown that at the time of…
We derive a general upper bound on the spreading rate of wavepackets in the framework of Schr\"odinger time evolution. Our result consists of showing that a portion of the wavepacket cannot escape outside a ball whose size grows dynamically…

Solutions of a system of wave equations are constructed for both homogeneous and inhomogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions at every regularity level. We prove that boundary observability, and thus boundary exact controllability, at some…
Recent results have revealed a critical way in which lower order terms affect the well-posedness of the characteristic initial value problem for the scalar wave equation. The proper choice of such terms can make the Cauchy problem for…
We consider the propagation of wave packets for a nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation, with a matrix-valued potential, in the semi-classical limit. For a matrix-valued potential, Strichartz estimates are available under long range assumptions.…
Non-dispersive wave packet for massless fermions is formulated on the basis of squeezed coherent states that are put in a form of common eigenfunction for the Hamiltonian and the helicity operator, starting from the Dirac equation. The wave…

The evolution of both quantum and classical ensembles may be described via the probability density P on configuration space, its canonical conjugate S, and an_ensemble_ Hamiltonian H[P,S]. For quantum ensembles this evolution is, of course,…
Generalised Hagedorn wave packets appear as exact solutions of Schr\"odinger equations with quadratic, possibly complex, potential, and are given by a polynomial times a Gaussian. We show that the Wigner transform of generalised Hagedorn…

We show that the Schr\"odinger equation can be derived assuming the Galilean covariance of a generic wave equation and the validity of the de Broglie's wave-particle duality hypothesis. We also obtain from this set of assumptions the…
