Is the Adiabatic Approximation Inconsistent?

量子物理 2007-05-23 v2

摘要

Marzlin and Sanders \cite{marzlin} have shown rigorously that the adiabatic approximation can be very inaccurate when applied to a Hamiltonian H(t)H(t) that generates the evolution U(t)U^{\dagger} (t) even if it gives an excellent approximation to the evolution U(t)U(t) generated by a dual Hamiltonian h(t)h(t). We show that this is not inconsistent with the adiabatic theorem and find that in general even if h(t)h(t) satisfies the conditions of the adiabatic theorem, H(t)H(t) will likely violate those conditions.
