Abstract

The evolution of a quantum system (t) in original condition under the generalized adiabatic postulate is discussed.The 2 energy system is solved and the off diagonal element k｜ is obtained in the non dynamic phase.The off diagonal element is related to the original condition.

Generalized adiabatic product expansion: A nonperturbative method of solving the time-dependent Schrödinger equation

Ali Mostafazadeh

We outline a method based on successive canonical transformations which yields a product expansion for the evolution operator of a general (possibly non-Hermitian) Hamiltonian. For a class of such Hamiltonians this expansion involves a finite number of terms, and our method gives the exact solution of the corresponding time-dependent Schrödinger equation. We apply this method to study the dynamics of a general nondegenerate two-level quantum system, a time-dependent classical harmonic oscillator, and a degenerate system consisting of a spin 1 particle interacting with a time-dependent electric field E⃗(t) through the Stark Hamiltonian H=λ(J⃗⋅E⃗)2.

Quantum adiabatic approximation and the geometric phase

Ali Mostafazadeh

A precise definition of an adiabaticity parameter \ensuremath{\nu} of a time-dependent Hamiltonian is proposed. A variation of the time-dependent perturbation theory is presented which yields a series expansion of the evolution operator U(\ensuremath{\tau})=${\ensuremath{\sum}}_{\mathrm{\ensuremath{\ell}}}$${\mathrm{U}}^{(\mathrm{\ensuremath{\ell}})}$(\ensuremath{\tau}) with ${\mathrm{U}}^{(\mathrm{\ensuremath{\ell}})}$(\ensuremath{\tau}) being at least of the order ${\ensuremath{\nu}}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{\ell}}}$. In particular, ${\mathrm{U}}^{(0)}$(\ensuremath{\tau}) corresponds to the adiabatic approximation and yields Berry's adiabatic phase. It is shown that this series expansion has nothing to do with the 1/\ensuremath{\tau} expansion of U(\ensuremath{\tau}). It is also shown that the nonadiabatic part of the evolution operator is generated by a transformed Hamiltonian which is off-diagonal in the eigenbasis of the initial Hamiltonian. This suggests the introduction of an adiabatic product expansion for U(\ensuremath{\tau}) which turns out to yield exact expressions for U(\ensuremath{\tau}) for a large number of quantum systems. In particular, a simple application of the adiabatic product expansion is used to show that for the Hamiltonian describing the dynamics of a magnetic dipole in an arbitrarily changing magnetic field, there exists another Hamiltonian with the same eigenvectors for which the Schr\"odinger equation is exactly solvable. Some related issues concerning geometric phases and their physical significance are also discussed.

Adiabatic evolution of quantum-mechanical systems

Jorge Vidal, José Wudka

A description of the adiabatic approximation in terms of the time-evolution operator is presented. Corrections to the approximation are studied, and it is seen that these can be obtained in a simple way in the case of a rapidly oscillating Hamiltonian.

Quantum Simulation of the Fokker-Planck Equation via Schrödingerization

Shi Jin, Nana Liu, Yue Yu

This paper studies a quantum simulation technique for solving the Fokker-Planck equation. Traditional semi-discretization methods often fail to preserve the underlying Hamiltonian dynamics and may even modify the Hamiltonian structure, particularly when incorporating boundary conditions. We address this challenge by employing the Schrödingerization method – it converts any linear partial and ordinary differential equation with non-Hermitian dynamics into systems of Schrödinger-type equations. It does so via the so-called warped phase transformation that maps the equation into one higher dimension. We explore the application in two distinct forms of the Fokker-Planck equation. For the conservation form, we show that the semi-discretization-based Schrödingerization is preferable, especially when dealing with non-periodic boundary conditions. Additionally, we analyze the Schrödingerization approach for unstable systems that possess positive eigenvalues in the real part of the coefficient matrix or differential operator. Our analysis reveals that the direct use of Schrödingerization has the same effect as a stabilization procedure. For the heat equation form, we propose a quantum simulation procedure based on the time-splitting technique, and give explicitly its corresponding quantum circuit. We discuss the relationship between operator splitting in the Schrödingerization method and its application directly to the original problem, illustrating how the Schrödingerization method accurately reproduces the time-splitting solutions at each step. Furthermore, we explore finite difference discretizations of the heat equation form using shift operators. Utilizing Fourier bases, we diagonalize the shift operators, enabling efficient simulation in the frequency space. Providing additional guidance on implementing the diagonal unitary operators, we conduct a comparative analysis between diagonalizations in the Bell and the Fourier bases, and show that the former generally exhibits greater efficiency than the latter.

Diagonal N-representability as a method for solving the representability problem

M. M. Mestechkin

The latest results of density matrix theory are summarized in terms of analysis of off-diagonal components. For a given reduced density matrix (RDM) of arbitrary order, the full density matrix is explicitly constructed, from which the RDM is derived by means of the corresponding reduction procedure. Both the matrices satisfy all the necessary conditions, such antisymmetry, normalization, hermiticity, except that the non-negative definiteness of the full DM is not guaranteed. If an RDM satisfies the necessary inequalities with the same number of indices as it has itself, then, as proved here, there is an additive correction to the full DM matrix that turns it into a non-negative definite matrix leading to the same RDM and satisfying the other requirements. This establishes a fundamental fact that these inequalities are sufficient as well, providing the N-representability of the given RDM. The construction is based on the classification, introduced in the article, of the multi-index elements of the RDM and full DM according to their degree of off-diagonality. RDM elements with a predetermined degree of off-diagonality are expressed through full DM elements with the same off-diagonality. This shows that the conventional variational approach to calculating the energy of the system by convex programming methods under the conditions of N-representability (before and even after reaching the minimum energy) generally does not lead to constructing a mixed quantum state composed of solutions to the Schrödinger equation. Therefore, except for the energy, it does not guarantee a correct description of the other properties so long as the conditions of correctness for each particular property are not expressed in terms of the RDM and not incorporated into the specific conditions of N-representability (regardless of the requirement of energy minimization).
