The time-dependence of correlation functions under the influence of classical equations of motion is described by an exact evolution equation. For conservative systems thermodynamic equilibrium is a fixed point of these equations. We show…
We present a nonperturbative, first-principles numerical approach for time-dependent problems in the framework of quantum field theory. In this approach the time evolution of quantum field systems is treated in real time and at the…
The ``evolving constants'' method of defining the quantum dynamics of time-reparametrization-invariant theories is investigated for a particular implementation of parametrized non-relativistic quantum mechanics (PNRQM). The wide range of…
In light of recent exciting progress in building up quantum computing facilities based on both optical and cold-atom techniques, the algorithms for quantum simulations of particle-physics systems are in rapid progress. In this paper, we…
Moments are expectation values of products of powers of position and momentum, taken over quantum states (or averages over a set of classical particles). For free particles, the evolution in the quantum case is closely related to that of a…
The not necessarily unitary evolution operator of a finite dimensional quantum system is studied with the help of a projection operators technique. Applying this approach to the Schr\"odinger equation allows the derivation of an alternative…
A quasi-static process is realized in a purely quantum-mechanical model which is described by oscillator (or particle) systems having relative-phase interactions. Time development of a mixture of two oscillator (or particle) systems which…
A modification of the covariant theory is proposed in which the self-energy of the system, corresponding to time-like degrees of freedom in the configuration space, preserves the classical law of change in quantum theory. As a result,…
In this paper, the projective geometry is used to describe the features of spherical manifold and discreteness in quantum evolution. As a system evolves in time the state vector changes and it traces out a curve in Hilbert space.…
Time evolution of quantum systems is of interest in physics, in chemistry, and, more recently, in computer science. Quantum computers are suggested as one route to propagating quantum systems far more efficiently than ordinary numerical…
We make and generalize the observation that summing of probability amplitudes of a discrete-time quantum walk over partitions of the walking graph consistent with the step operator results in a unitary evolution on the reduced graph which…
We study the changes if any of the expectation value of a general observable in a quantum system, the difficulties associated with the detection of these changes, and the possible methods for correcting the system through unitary control to…
We analyze random unitary evolution of the qubit within memory kernel approach. We provide sufficient conditions which guarantee that the corresponding memory kernel generates physically legitimate quantum evolution. Interestingly, we are…
Here, we introduce the Directional Quantum Evolution Theory (DQET), a covariant reformulation of quantum mechanics where evolution takes place along a four-vector-defined arbitrary timelike direction. This method restores space-time…
In this paper we discuss the quantum potential approach of Bohm in the context of quantum cosmological model. This approach makes it possible to convert the wavefunction of the universe to a set of equations describing the time evolution of…
It is expected that a quantum theory of gravity will radically alter our current notion of spacetime geometry. However, contrary to what was commonly assumed for many decades, quantum gravity effects could manifest in scales much larger…
A process model of quantum mechanics utilizes a combinatorial game to generate a discrete and finite causal space upon which can be defined a self-consistent quantum mechanics. An emergent space-time M and continuous wave function arise…
Inspired by the discrete evolution implied by the recent work on loop quantum cosmology, we obtain a discrete time description of usual quantum mechanics viewing it as a constrained system. This description, obtained without any…
I propose a time-symmetric generalization of quantum mechanics that is inspired by scattering theory. The model postulates two interacting quantum states, one traveling forward in time and one backward in time. The interaction is modeled by…
We tackle the dynamical description of the quantum measurement process, by explicitly addressing the interaction between the system under investigation with the measurement apparatus, the latter ultimately considered as macroscopic quantum…
