In a previous paper [J. Chem. Phys. 121 4501 (2004)] a unique bipolar decomposition, Psi = Psi1 + Psi2 was presented for stationary bound states Psi of the one-dimensional Schroedinger equation, such that the components Psi1 and Psi2…

In a recent series of papers [J. Chem. Phys. 121 4501 (2004), J. Chem. Phys. 124 034115 (2006), J. Chem. Phys. 124 034116 (2006)] a bipolar counter-propagating wave decomposition, Psi = Psi+ + Psi-, was presented for stationary bound states…
The semiclassical method is characterized by finite forces and smooth, well-behaved trajectories, but also by multivalued representational functions that are ill-behaved at turning points. In contrast, quantum trajectory methods--based on…
We study the asymptotic behavior of Bohmian trajectories in a scattering situation with short range potential and for wave functions with a scattering and a bound part. It is shown that the set of possible trajectories splits into…
Maintaining the position that the wave function $\psi$ provides a complete description of state, the traditional formalism of quantum mechanics is augmented by introducing continuous trajectories for particles which are sample paths of a…
A solution $\psi $ to Schr\"odinger's equation needs some degree of regularity in order to allow the construction of a Bohmian mechanics from the integral curves of the velocity field $\hbar \Im \left( \bigtriangledown \psi /m\psi \right)…
We present a new numerical method for accurate computations of solutions to (linear) one dimensional Schr\"odinger equations with periodic potentials. This is a prominent model in solid state physics where we also allow for perturbations by…
Based on our previous study [IS2] we develop fully the stationary scattering theory for the Schrodinger operator on a manifold possessing an escape function. A particular class of examples are manifolds with Euclidean and/or hyperbolic…
We present a detailed study of scattering by an amplitude-modulated potential barrier using three distinct physical frameworks: quantum, classical, and semiclassical. Classical physics gives bounds on the energy and momentum of the…
Quantum polarization is investigated by means of a trajectory picture based on the Bohmian formulation of quantum mechanics. Relevant examples of classical-like two-mode field states are thus examined, namely Glauber and SU(2) coherent…
In quantum mechanics, systems can be described in phase space in terms of the Wigner function and the star-product operation. Quantum characteristics, which appear in the Heisenberg picture as the Weyl's symbols of operators of canonical…
A basic aspect of the recently proposed approach to quantum mechanics is that no use of any axiomatic interpretation of the wave function is made. In particular, the quantum potential turns out to be an intrinsic potential energy of the…
Based on the Chetaev theorem on stable dynamical trajectories in the presence of dissipative forces, we obtain the generalized condition for stability of Hamilton systems in the form of the Schrodinger equation. It is shown that the energy…
For a class of long-range potentials, including ultra-strong perturbations of the attractive Coulomb potential in dimension $d\geq3$, we introduce a stationary scattering theory for Schr\"odinger operators which is regular at zero energy.…
We study one-dimensional scattering for a decaying potential with rapid periodic oscillations and strong localized singularities. In particular, we consider the Schr\"odinger equation \[ H_\epsilon \psi := (-\partial_x^2 + V_0(x) +…
This work studies the semiclassical methods in multi-dimensional quantum systems bounded by finite potentials. By replacing the Maslov index by the scattering phase, the modified transfer operator method gives rather accurate corrections to…
We describe a computational investigation of tunneling at finite energy in a weakly coupled quantum mechanical system with two degrees of freedom. We compare a full quantum mechanical analysis to the results obtained by making use of a…
We develop direct and inverse scattering theory for one-dimensional Schroedinger operators with steplike potentials which are asymptotically close to different finite-gap periodic potentials on different half-axes. We give a complete…
