We develop a Bohmian analysis of a two-dimensional ghost Hamiltonian and its mapping to the degenerate Pais-Uhlenbeck model. Using Gaussian wavepackets, we derive the corresponding guidance equations, the centre and width evolution, and the…
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)…
This review is devoted to the different techniques that have been developed to compute the phase-coherent transport properties of quantum nanoelectronic systems connected to electrodes. Beside a review of the different algorithms proposed…
We analyze the dynamics of a quantum particle in a one-dimensional bistable potential within the framework of Bohm's quantum mechanics. We give arguments that evidence the fallacy of certain claims found in the literature dealing with the…
Whenever we consider any relativistic quantum wave equation we are confronted with the Klein paradox, which asserts that incident particles will suffer a surplus of reflection when dispersed by a discontinuous potential. Following recent…
The present article focuses on studying the extent to which the nonuniqueness that is inherent in the standard quantum mechanical calculation of arrival/transit time distribution can be exploited to enable an empirical scrutiny of any…
Wave propagation and acoustic scattering problems require vast computational resources to be solved accurately at high frequencies. Asymptotic methods can make this cost potentially frequency independent by explicitly extracting the…
The scattering of an incident plane wave on two Aharonov-Bohm vortices with opposite fluxes is considered in detail. The presence of the vortices imposes non-trivial boundary conditions for the partial waves on a cut joining the two…
We calculate the time of arrival probability distribution of a quantum particle using the Bohmian formalism. The pilot-wave is given by the wave function of the one dimensional vacuum squeezed state but written in the Schr\"odinger…
Many-body quantum-mechanical scattering problem is solved asymptotically when the size of the scatterers (inhomogeneities) tends to zero and their number tends to infinity. A method is given for calculation of the number of small…
In recent years, intensive effort has gone into developing numerical tools for exact quantum mechanical calculations that are based on Bohmian mechanics. As part of this effort we have recently developed as alternative formulation of…
We derive logarithmic asymptotics of probabilities of small deviations for iterated processes in the space of trajectories. We find conditions under which these asymptotics coincide with those of processes generating iterated processes.…
We solve the Klein-Gordon equation for a step potential with hyperbolic tangent potential. The scattering solutions are derived in terms of hypergeometric functions. The reflection coefficient R and transmission coefficient T are…
Bohmian mechanics is a nonlocal hidden-variable interpretation of quantum theory which predicts that particles follow deterministic trajectories in spacetime. Historically, the study of Bohmian trajectories has mainly been restricted to…
The concept of quantum superposition is reconsidered and discussed from the viewpoint of Bohmian mechanics, the hydrodynamic formulation of quantum mechanics, in order to elucidate some physical consequences that go beyond the simple…
We consider the scattering theory for the Schrodinger equation with $-\Delta -|x|^{\alpha}$ as a reference Hamiltonian, for $0< \alpha \leq 2$, in any space dimension. We prove that when this Hamiltonian is perturbed by a potential, the…
The Klein-Gordon equation in the presence of a spatially one-dimensional Hulth\'en potential is solved exactly and the scattering solutions are obtained in terms of hypergeometric functions. The transmission coefficient is derived by the…
We consider the ultrahyperbolic equation in the Euclidean space. The behavior at the infinity of a certain class of solutions is studied. We examine the issue of existence of solutions to the scattering problem: for a given asymptotics at…
The paper discusses the applicability of WKB and Born (small perturbations) approximations in the problem of the backscattering of quantum particles and classical waves by one-dimensional smooth potentials with amplitudes small compared to…
Both the physical picture of the dynamics of atoms and molecules in intense infrared fields and its theoretical description use the concept of electron trajectories. Here we address a key question which arises in this context: Are…
