Quantum nonstationary oscillators: Invariants, dynamical algebras and coherent states via point transformations

Kevin Zelaya, Oscar Rosas-Ortiz

Abstract We consider the relations between nonstationary quantum oscillators and their stationary counterpart in view of their applicability to study particles in electromagnetic traps. We develop a consistent model of quantum oscillators with time-dependent frequencies that are subjected to the action of a time-dependent driving force, and have a time-dependent zero point energy. Our approach uses the method of point transformations to construct the physical solutions of the parametric oscillator as mere deformations of the well known solutions of the stationary oscillator. In this form, the determination of the quantum integrals of motion is automatically achieved as a natural consequence of the transformation, without necessity of any ansätz. It yields the mechanism to construct an orthonormal basis for the nonstationary oscillators, so arbitrary superpositions of orthogonal states are available to obtain the corresponding coherent states. We also show that the dynamical algebra of the parametric oscillator is immediately obtained as a deformation of the algebra generated by the conventional boson ladder operators. A number of explicit examples is provided to show the applicability of our approach.

Coherent states and geometric phases of a generalized damped harmonic oscillator with time-dependent mass and frequency

I. A. Pedrosa, D. A. P. de Lima

In this paper, we study the generalized harmonic oscillator with arbitrary time-dependent mass and frequency subjected to a linear velocity-dependent frictional force from classical and quantum points of view. We obtain the solution of the classical equation of motion of this system for some particular cases and derive an equation of motion that describes three different systems. Furthermore, with the help of the quantum invariant method and using quadratic invariants we solve analytically and exactly the time-dependent Schrödinger equation for this system. Afterwards, we construct coherent states for the quantized system and employ them to investigate some of the system's quantum properties such as quantum fluctuations of the coordinate and the momentum as well as the corresponding uncertainty product. In addition, we derive the geometric, dynamical and Berry phases for this nonstationary system. Finally, we evaluate the dynamical and Berry phases for three special cases and surprisingly find identical expressions for the dynamical phase and the same formulae for the Berry's phase.

The Study of the System with Varying Mass by Making Use of the Time-dependent Unitary Transformations

Yu You

Method of the time dependent unitary transformation is one of powerful tools for the study of the time dependent system. The time evolution of a harmonic oscillator with varying mass was studied by making use of a sequence of the time dependent unitary transformations and the exact solution of the system obtained. An explicit expression for the exact evolving state of a harmonic oscillator, whose mass varies as non negtive powers of time was also given.
