Duality in Perturbation Theory and the Quantum Adiabatic Approximation

Duality is considered for the perturbation theory by deriving, given a series solution in a small parameter, its dual series with the development parameter being the inverse of the other. A dual symmetry in perturbation theory is identified. It is then shown that the dual to the Dyson series in quantum mechanics is given by a recently devised series having the adiabatic approximation as leading...

Space-Adiabatic Perturbation Theory

We study approximate solutions to the Schrödinger equation iε∂ψt(x)/∂t = H(x,−iε∇x)ψt(x) with the Hamiltonian H the Weyl quantization of the symbol H(q, p) taking values in the space of bounded operators on the Hilbert space Hf of fast “internal” degrees of freedom. By assumption H(q, p) has an isolated energy band. We prove that interband transitions are suppressed to any order in ε. As a cons...

The Quantum Adiabatic Approximation in Chaotic Systems

Quantum systems with chaotic classical counterparts cannot be treated by perturbative techniques or any kind of adiabatic approximations. This is so, in spite of the quantum suppression of classical chaos. We explicitly calculate the adiabaticity parameter for the case of a Fermi Accelerator and show that the adiabatic expansion of the evolution operator is divergent. The relevance of this situ...

Necessary condition for the quantum adiabatic approximation

A gapped quantum system that is adiabatically perturbed remains approximately in its eigenstate after the evolution. We prove that, for constant gap, general quantum processes that approximately prepare the final eigenstate require a minimum time proportional to the ratio of the length of the eigenstate path to the gap. Thus, no rigorous adiabatic condition can yield a smaller cost. We also giv...

Adiabatic approximation in open quantum systems

We generalize the standard quantum adiabatic approximation to the case of open quantum systems. We define the adiabatic limit of an open quantum system as the regime in which its dynamical superoperator can be decomposed in terms of independently evolving Jordan blocks. We then establish validity and invalidity conditions for this approximation and discuss their applicability to superoperators ...
