New classes of analytic solutions of the two-level problem

Abstract

A simple technique to find analytic solutions of the time-dependent Schrödinger equations is introduced. A number of three-parametric classes of the two-level problem, integrable in terms of the Gauss hypergeometric function, including all presently known analytically solvable models are derived.

A new class of analytic solutions of the two-state problem

C. E. Carroll, F. T. Hioe

A new class of solutions of the time-dependent Schrodinger equation is found for the two-state problem often encountered in quantum optics, magnetic resonance and atomic collisions. The authors use the Riemann-Papperitz differential equation to find exact solutions in terms of hypergeometric functions. They consider only cases in which the final occupation probabilities are elementary functions of the parameters of the model.

Analytically solvable Hamiltonians for quantum two-level systems and their dynamics

ANTONINO MESSINA, Hiromichi Nakazato

A simple systematic way of obtaining analytically solvable Hamiltonians for quantum two-level systems is presented. In this method, a time-dependent Hamiltonian and the resulting unitary evolution operator are connected through an arbitrary function of time, furnishing us with new analytically solvable cases. The method is surprisingly simple, direct, and transparent and is applicable to a wide class of two-level Hamiltonians with no involved constraint on the input function. A few examples illustrate how the method leads to simple solvable Hamiltonians and dynamics.

Exactly Solvable Time-Dependent Problems: Potentials of Monotonously Decreasing Function of Time

Tae Jun Park

We solve the Schrodinger equation analytically for systems whose potentials have a certain time-dependence (which is monotonously decreasing) and general coordinate-dependences.Only a few time-dependent systems have been reported to be analytically solved whose potentials are constant, linear, and quadratic functions of coordinate with arbitrary time-dependences.From a different perspective, we focus on the time-dependent systems whose potentials are monotonously decreasing functions of time with arbitrary coordinate dependences.Time-dependent potential of any coordinate-dependence can be handled analytically by transforming it to a time-independent potential of known solutions if its time-dependence is monotonously decreasing.We do this by a unitary transformation of the wavefunction and variable transformations to change the Schrodinger equation to be time-independent in new variables.These variables are then determined by solving a set of simple differential equations.This way we are able to find and to obtain analytical solutions for time-dependent potentials which we mention above.

New classes of analytic solutions of the three-state problem

Artur Mikhailovich Ishkhanyan

A rich multiparametric class of solutions of the time-dependent Schrödinger equations, including many integrable cases known at present of the three-state problem, is derived. In addition, the class contains an infinite number of new multiparametric integrable subfamilies. Examples of such four-parametric new subfamilies of asymmetric, in general, amplitude and frequency modulation functions permitting solution of the three-state problem in terms of the Clausen function are presented.

Equivalence of two alternative approaches to Schrodinger equations

B. Gönül, Koray Köksal

Recently developed simple approach for the exact/approximate solution of Schrodinger equations with constant/position-dependent mass, in which the potential is considered as in the perturbation theory, is shown to be equivalent to the one leading to the construction of exactly solvable potentials via the solution of second-order differential equations in terms of known special functions. The formalism in the former solves difficulties encountered in the latter in revealing the corrections explicitly to the unperturbed piece of the solutions whereas the other obviate cumbersome procedures used in the calculations of the former.
