Fourier transforms are ubiquitous mathematical tools in basic and applied sciences. We here report classical and quantum optical realizations of the discrete fractional Fourier transform, a generalization of the Fourier transform. In the…

This paper establishes an aspect of Bohr's correspondence principle, i.e. that quantum mechanics converges in the high frequency limit to classical mechanics, for commuting semiclassical unitary operators. We prove, under minimal…

We modify the pre-factor of the semiclassical propagator to improve its efficiency in practical implementations. The new pre-factor represents the smooth portion of an orbit's contribution, and leads to fast convergence in numerical…

We introduce a compact operator-based technique that solves the paraxial wave equation for a broad class of structured light fields. Using the spatial evolution operator to propagate two families of physically apodized inputs, Gaussian…

Quantum states can be described equivalently by density matrices, Wigner functions or quantum tomograms. We analyze the accuracy and performance of three related semiclassical approaches to quantum dynamics, in particular with respect to…

Unbound wave packets propagating to macroscopic space and time coordinates become proportional to their (Fourier transform) momentum distribution at earlier times whereby the asymptotic coordinates and the initial momenta are connected…

We study the Cauchy problem for an evolution equation of Schr\"odinger type. The Hamiltonian is the Weyl quantization of a real homogeneous quadratic form with a pseudodifferential perturbation of negative order from Shubin's class. We…

In this note we study the properties of a sequence of approximate propagators for the Schr\"odinger equation, in the spirit of Feynman's path integrals. Precisely, we consider Hamiltonian operators arising as the Weyl quantization of a…

We investigate non-classical effects such as fractional revivals, squeezing and higher-order squeezing of photon-added coherent states propagating through a Kerr-like medium.The Wigner functions corresponding to these states at the instants…

An integral of the Wigner function of a wavefunction |psi >, over some region S in classical phase space is identified as a (quasi) probability measure (QPM) of S, and it can be expressed by the |psi > average of an operator referred to as…

We construct a general quantization procedure for square integrable functions on well-behaved connected exponential Lie groups. The Lie groups in question should admit at least one co-adjoint orbit of maximal possible dimension. The…

This paper is devoted to the construction and analysis of the Wigner functions for noncommutative quantum mechanics, their marginal distributions and star-products, following a technique developed earlier, {\it viz\/,} using the unitary…

We study smooth, caustic-free, chaotic semiclassical dynamics on two-dimensional phase space and find that the dynamics can be approached by an iterative procedure which constructs an approximation to the exact long-time semiclassical…

A general deformation of the Heisenberg algebra is introduced with two deformed operators instead of just one. This is generalised to many variables, and permits the simultaneous existence of coherent states, and the transposition of…

If we develop into perturbation series the evolution operator of the Heisenberg equation in the infinite dimensional Weyl algebra, say, for the $\phi^4$ model of field theory, then the arising integrals almost coincide with the usual…

We continue the study, from a semiclassical viewpoint, of Calvo and Picon's operators, as manipulating photon states in quantum communication. In a previous paper, we defined a one-dimensional model operator and studied it analytically…

We develop a quasi-classical theory of high harmonic generation in semiconductors based on an interband current that has been transformed from Bloch to Wannier basis. The Wannier quasi-classical approach reveals a complete picture of the…

Fourier methods well known in signal processing are applied to three-dimensional wave propagation problems. The Fourier transform of the Green function, when written explicitly in terms of a real-valued spatial frequency, consists of…

Because of a formal equivalence with the partition function of an Ising chain, the semiclassical traces of the quantum baker map can be calculated using the transfer-matrix method. We analyze the transfer matrices associated with the baker…

Time evolution of the expectation values of various dynamical operators of the harmonic oscillator with dissipation is analitically obtained within the framework of the Lindblad's theory for open quantum systems. We deduce the density…
