In this paper, we address the Wigner distribution and the star exponential function for a time-dependent harmonic oscillator for which the mass and the frequency terms are considered explicitly depending on time. To such an end, we explore…
In this paper we give a general solution to the problem of the damped harmonic oscillator under the influence of an arbitrary time-dependent external force. We employ simple methods accessible for beginners and useful for undergraduate…
I review the generating function for quantum-statistical mechanics, known as the Feynman-Vernon influence functional, the decoherence functional, or the Schwinger-Keldysh path integral. I describe a probability-conserving $i\varepsilon$…
Using Schwinger Variational Principle we solve the problem of quantum harmonic oscillator with time dependent frequency. Here, we do not take the usual approach which implicitly assumes an adiabatic behavior for the frequency. Instead, we…
An algorithm for obtaining the Taylor coefficients of an expansion of Feynman diagrams is proposed. It is based on recurrence relations which can be applied to the propagator as well as to the vertex diagrams. As an application, several…
The Lindblad master equation for an open quantum system with a Hamiltonian containing an arbitrary potential is written as an equation for the Wigner distribution function in the phase space representation. The time derivative of this…
We show that Feynman's Clock construction, in which the time-evolution of a closed quantum system is encoded as a ground state problem, can be extended to open quantum systems. In our formalism, the ground states of an ensemble of…
The time independent mean field method (TIMF) for the calculation of matrix elements of non relativistic propagators is based on a variational principle whose non linearity induces a multiplicity of variational solutions. Several of them…
We {\em derive} the exact configuration space path integral, together with the way how to evaluate it, from the Hamiltonian approach for any quantum mechanical system in flat spacetime whose Hamiltonian has at most two momentum operators.…
A global solution of the Schr\"odinger equation for explicitly time-dependent Hamiltonians is derived by integrating the non-linear differential equation associated with the time-dependent wave operator. A fast iterative solution method is…
Quantum canonical transformations corresponding to time-dependent diffeomorphisms of the configuration space are studied. A special class of these transformations which correspond to time-dependent dilatations is used to identify a…
We consider the fractional oscillator being a generalization of the conventional linear oscillator in the framework of fractional calculus. It is interpreted as an ensemble average of ordinary harmonic oscillators governed by stochastic…
The mathematical similarities between non-relativistic wavefunction propagation in quantum mechanics and image propagation in scalar diffraction theory are used to develop a novel understanding of time and paths through spacetime as a…
We show how the induction law is correctly used in the path integral computation of the free particle propagator. The way this primary path integral example is treated in most textbooks is a little bit missleading.
We prove that the Schr\"odinger equation for N number of particles in the time dependent electro-magnetic field generates a unique unitary propagator on the state space under the condition that the field is smooth and moderately but almost…
The propagator of the discrete Schr\"odinger equation is computed and its properties are revealed through a Feynman path summation in discrete space. Initial data problems such as diffraction in discrete space and continuous time are…
We determine the solution of the fractional spatial diffusion equation in n-dimensional Euclidean space for a "free" particle by computing the corresponding propagator. We employ both the Hamiltonian and Lagrangian approaches which produce…
In this paper, using the Lewis-Riesenfeld method, we determine the explicit form of the wavefunctions of one- and three-dimensional harmonic oscillators with time-dependent mass and frequency within the framework of the Dunkl derivative,…
The concepts of Hamiltonian Feynman integrals in white noise analysis are used to realize as the first velocity dependent potential the Hamiltonian Feynman integrand for a charged particle in a constant magnetic field in coordinate space as…
We point out a rather effective approach for solving the time-dependent harmonic oscillator $\ddot q=-\omega^2 q$ under various regularity assumptions. Where $\omega(t )$ is $C^1$ this is reduced to Hamilton equation for the angle variable…
