Time evolution of non-Hermitian Hamiltonian systems
We provide time-evolution operators, gauge transformations and a perturbative treatment for non-Hermitian Hamiltonian systems, which are explicitly timedependent. We determine various new equivalence pairs for Hermitian and non-Hermitian Hamiltonians, which are therefore pseudo-Hermitian and in addition in some cases also invariant under PT-symmetry. In particular, for the harmonic oscillator p...
متن کاملTime-reversal symmetry in dynamical systems: a survey
In this paper we survey the topic of time-reversal symmetry in dynamical systems. We begin with a brief discussion of the position of time-reversal symmetry in physics. After defining time-reversal symmetry as it applies to dynamical systems, we then introduce a major theme of our survey, namely the relation of time-reversible dynamical sytems to equivariant and Hamiltonian dynamical systems. W...
متن کاملBroken versus Non-Broken Time Reversal Symmetry: Irreversibility and Response
We review some approaches to macroscopic irreversibility from reversible microscopic dynamics, introducing the contribution of time dependent perturbations within the framework of recent developments in non-equilibrium statistical physics. We show that situations commonly assumed to violate the time reversal symmetry (presence of magnetic fields, rotating reference frames, and some time depende...
متن کاملAdiabatic theorem for non-hermitian time-dependent open systems
In the conventional quantum mechanics (i.e., hermitian QM) the adiabatic theorem for systems subjected to time periodic fields holds only for bound systems and not for open ones (where ionization and dissociation take place) [D. W. Hone, R. Ketzmerik, and W. Kohn, Phys. Rev. A 56, 4045 (1997)]. Here with the help of the (t,t’) formalism combined with the complex scaling method we derive an adia...
متن کاملNon-Hermitian time-dependent quantum systems with real energies
In this work we intend to study a class of time-dependent quantum systems with nonHermitian Hamiltonians, particularly those whose Hermitian counterpart are important for the comprehension of posed problems in quantum optics and quantum chemistry, which consists of an oscillator with time-dependent mass and frequency under the action of a time-dependent imaginary potential. The propagator for a...
