Squeezing-Displacement Dynamics for One-Dimensional Potential Well with Two Mobile Walls where Wavefunctions Vanish

Abstract

We show that the dynamics for a particle confined in a one-dimensional potential well with two mobile boundaries where wavefunctions vanish can be converted to the case as if the boundary was time-independent at the expense of an appropriate time-dependent Hamiltonian. The squeezing-displacement operator can be derived, and the corresponding Hamiltonian is determined by the situation of mobile boundaries.

Dynamics of a particle confined in a two-dimensional dilating and deforming domain

Fabio Anzà, Sara Di Martino, ANTONINO MESSINA +1 more

Some recent results concerning a particle confined in a one-dimensional box with moving walls are briefly reviewed. By exploiting the same techniques used for the 1D problem, we investigate the behavior of a quantum particle confined in a two-dimensional box (a 2D billiard) whose walls are moving by recasting the relevant mathematical problem with moving boundaries in the form of a problem with fixed boundaries and time-dependent Hamiltonian. Changes of the shape of the box are shown to be important, as it clearly emerges from the comparison between the ‘pantographic’ case (same shape of the box through the entire process) and the case with deformation.

Exact Time-Dependent Wave Functions of a Confined Time-Dependent Harmonic Oscillator with Two Moving Boundaries

Chi‐Fai Lo

By applying the standard analytical techniques of solving partial differential equations, we have obtained the exact solution in terms of the Fourier sine series to the time-dependent Schrödinger equation describing a quantum one-dimensional harmonic oscillator of time-dependent frequency confined in an infinite square well with the two walls moving along some parametric trajectories. Based upon the orthonormal basis of quasi-stationary wave functions, the exact propagator of the system has also been analytically derived. Special cases like (i) a confined free particle, (ii) a confined time-independent harmonic oscillator, and (iii) an aging oscillator are examined, and the corresponding time-dependent wave functions are explicitly determined. Besides, the approach has been extended to solve the case of a confined generalized time-dependent harmonic oscillator for some parametric moving boundaries as well.

Effective Schrodinger equation for one-dimensional systems with rapidly oscillating boundary conditions

N. P. Tretyakov, Павел Евгеньевич Голосов, Anton Kochanov

The method of the effective Schrodinger equation applied to the one-dimensional problem of a moving particle in a potential box with a potential function and high-frequency time-dependent boundary conditions is investigated. The method of converting the initial equation written for a system with time-dependent boundary conditions to an equation describing a system in a constant region is briefly presented. The resulting system can be considered as a particle in a potential box, located in the field of some effective potential, different from the initial one. Next we consider a particular case of wall motion, with the subsequent construction of the effective Schrodinger equation. Rapid oscillations of the potential box as a whole (i.e., without changing its width) lead to an additional term in the effective equation proportional to the second derivative of the potential. This, in particular, can lead to the formation of potential wells at potential peaks in which bound states of a particle are possible. In the considered case, it was assumed that the oscillation amplitudes are small in comparison with the characteristic dimensions of the system.

Quantum effective force in an expanding infinite square-well potential and Bohmian perspective

S V Mousavi

The Schrödinger equation is solved for the case of a particle confined to a small region of a box with infinite walls. If walls of the well are moved, then, due to an effective quantum nonlocal interaction with the boundary, even though the particle is nowhere near the walls, it will be affected. It is shown that this force apart from a minus sign is equal to the expectation value of the gradient of the quantum potential for vanishing at the walls boundary condition. Variation of this force with time is studied. A selection of Bohmian trajectories of the confined particle is also computed.

One Dimensional Schrodinger Equation With Two Moving Boundaries

Ercan Yilmaz

In this letter, we consider a Schrodinger equation for a well potential with varying width. We solve one dimensional time-dependent Schrodinger equation subject to time-dependent boundary conditions for a spinless particle inside infinite potential well, both wall of which move opposite direction with different velocities v1 and v2, respectively.
