Star exponentials for any ordering of the elements of the inhomogeneous symplectic Lie algebra

Jean-Marie Maillard

We compute for any ordering the star exponentials of all polynomials of degree not greater than two on the 2ℓ-dimensional phase space of a quantum system with ℓ degrees of freedom, and we show in the particular case of the Moyal star product that the Weyl transform of the Moyal star exponential of the one-dimensional harmonic oscillator Hamiltonian is the evolution operator of this quantum system.

Exponential time-evolution operator for the time-dependent harmonic oscillator

Francisco Marcelo Fernández

The time-evolution operator for the time-dependent harmonic oscillator H= (1)/(2) {α(t)p2 +β(t)q2} is exactly obtained as the exponential of an anti-Hermitian operator. The method is based on the equations of motion for the coordinate and momentum operators in the Heisenberg representation. The problem is reduced to solving the classical equations of motion.
