We argue that the problem of time is not a crucial issue inherent in the quantum picture of the universe evolution. On the minisuperspace model example with the massless scalar field, we demonstrate four approaches to the description of…
A long-standing problem in quantum gravity and cosmology is the quantization of systems in which time evolution is generated by a constraint that must vanish on solutions. Here, an algebraic formulation of this problem is presented,…
We develop an intuitive geometric picture of quantum states, define a particular state distance, and derive a quantum speed limit (QSL) for open systems. Our QSL is attainable because any initial state can be driven to a final state by the…
A reformulation of a physical theory in which measurements at the initial and final moments of time are treated independently is discussed, both on the classical and quantum levels. Methods of the standard quantum mechanics are used to…
The study of quantum systems evolving from initial states to distinguishable, orthogonal final states is important for information processing applications such as quantum computing and quantum metrology. However, for most unitary evolutions…
We show how to approximate a solution of the first order linear evolution equation, together with its possible analytic continuation, using a solution of the time-fractional equation of order $\delta >1$, where $\delta \to 1+0$.
We show that the quantum computational speedup of quantum algorithms is due to their teleological character, their being evolutions toward a goal (the solution of the problem) with an attractor in the very goal they will produce in the…
Initial-boundary value problems for the linear Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation posed on bounded rectangles are considered. Spectral properties of a stationary operator are studied in order to show that the evolution problem posed on a bounded…

The time evolution of a bounded quantum system is considered in the framework of the orthogonal, unitary and symplectic circular ensembles of random matrix theory. For an $N$ dimensional Hilbert space we prove that in the large $N$ limit…
The pace of evolution of physical systems is fundamentally constrained by quantum speed limits (QSL), which have found broad applications in quantum science and technology. We consider the speed of evolution for quantum systems undergoing…
In this paper we consider generalization of classical and quantum mechanics that directly follows from the causality principle and topology of a system state space. In generalized mechanics, the Hamiltonian/Schrodinger equations remain the…
We discuss the problem of counting the maximum number of distinct states that an isolated physical system can pass through in a given period of time---its maximum speed of dynamical evolution. Previous analyses have given bounds in terms of…
The story on the early days of the Quantum Ergodic Theorem. Alternative proof, underlying heuristics, physical analogies and interpretations.
We derive a Margolus-Levitin type bound on the minimal evolution time of an arbitrarily driven open quantum system. We express this quantum speed limit time in terms of the operator norm of the nonunitary generator of the dynamics. We apply…
The minimal time a system requires to transform from an initial state to target state is defined as the quantum speed limit time. quantum speed limit time can be applied to quantify the maximum speed of the evolution of a quantum system.…
Objections to Darwinian evolution are often based on the time required to carry out the necessary mutations. Seemingly, exponential numbers of mutations are needed. We show that such estimates ignore the effects of natural selection, and…
