The Ramsey method in high-precision mass spectrometry with Penning traps: Theoretical foundations
2007
Abstract This paper presents in a quantum mechanical framework a theoretical description of the interconversion of the magnetron and modified cyclotron motional modes of ions in a Penning trap due to excitation by external rf-quadrupole fields with a frequency near the true cyclotron frequency. The work aims at a correct description of the resonance line shapes that are observed in connection with more complicated excitation schemes using several excitation pulses, such as Ramsey’s method of separated oscillating fields. Quantum mechanical arguments together with the “rotating wave approximation” suggest a model Hamiltonian that permits a rigorous solution of the corresponding Heisenberg eq…
A Symmetry Adapted Approach to the Dynamic Jahn-Teller Problem
2011
In this article we present a symmetry-adapted approach aimed to the accurate solution of the dynamic Jahn-Teller (JT) problem. The algorithm for the solution of the eigen-problem takes full advantage of the point symmetry arguments. The system under consideration is supposed to consist of a set of electronic levels \({\Gamma }_{1},{\Gamma }_{2}\ldots {\Gamma }_{n}\) labeled by the irreducible representations (irreps) of the actual point group, mixed by the active JT and pseudo JT vibrational modes \({\Gamma }_{1},{\Gamma }_{2}\ldots {\Gamma }_{f}\) (vibrational irreps). The bosonic creation operators b +(Γγ) are transformed as components γ of the vibrational irrep Γ. The first excited vibra…
Weyl Asymptotics for the Damped Wave Equation
2019
The damped wave equation is closely related to non-self-adjoint perturbations of a self-adjoint operator P of the form $$\displaystyle P_\epsilon =P+i\epsilon Q. $$ Here, P is a semi-classical pseudodifferential operator of order 0 on L2(X), where we consider two cases: X = Rn and P has the symbol P ∼ p(x, ξ) + hp1(x, ξ) + ⋯ . in S(m), as in Sect. 6.1, where the description is valid also in the case n > 1. We assume for simplicity that the order function m(x, ξ) tends to + ∞, when (x, ξ) tends to ∞. We also assume that P is formally self-adjoint. Then by elliptic theory (and the ellipticity assumption on P) we know that P is essentially self-adjoint with purely discrete spectrum. X is a com…
Study of the stretching modes of the arsine molecule
2003
Abstract To study local mode XY 3 molecules, we use properties of the group chain U ( 4 ) ⊃ U ( 3 ) ⊃ K ( 3 ) ⊃ S ( 3 ) ≈ C 3 v . For the Hamiltonian, we deduce diagonal terms and coupling terms between bonds. We analyze the stretching modes of the arsine molecule. An algebraic transition operator is built and applied to the same molecular system.
Adiabatic approximation for quantum dissipative systems: formulation, topology and superadiabatic tracking
2010
A generalized adiabatic approximation is formulated for a two-state dissipative Hamiltonian which is valid beyond weak dissipation regimes. The history of the adiabatic passage is described by superadiabatic bases as in the nondissipative regime. The topology of the eigenvalue surfaces shows that the population transfer requires, in general, a strong coupling with respect to the dissipation rate. We present, furthermore, an extension of the Davis-Dykhne-Pechukas formula to the dissipative regime using the formalism of Stokes lines. Processes of population transfer by an external frequency-chirped pulse-shaped field are given as examples.

Population dynamics based on ladder bosonic operators
2021
Abstract We adopt an operatorial method, based on truncated bosons, to describe the dynamics of populations in a closed region with a non trivial topology. The main operator that includes the various mechanisms and interactions between the populations is the Hamiltonian, constructed with the density and transport operators. The whole evolution is derived from the Schrodinger equation, and the densities of the populations are retrieved from the normalized expected values of the density operators. We show that this approach is suitable for applications in very large domain, solving the computational issues that typically occur when using an Hamiltonian based on fermionic ladder operators.
Star-products, spectral analysis, and hyperfunctions
2000
We study the ⋆-exponential function U(t;X) of any element X in the affine symplectic Lie algebra of the Moyal ⋆-product on the symplectic manifold (ℝ × ℝ;ω). When X is a compact element, a natural specific candidate for U (t;X) to be the exponential function is suggested by the study we make in the non-compact case. U (t;X) has singularities in the t variable. The analytic continuation U(z;X),z = t + iy, defines two boundary values δ+ U (t;X) = limy↓0 U(z;X) and δ-(t;X) = limy↑0 U(z; X). δ+ U (t;X) is a distribution while δ- U (t;X) is a Beurling-type, Gevrey-class s — 2 ultradistribution. We compute the Fourier transforms in t of δ± U (t;X). Both Fourier spectra are discrete but different …
Regularity properties for quasiminimizers of a $(p,q)$-Dirichlet integral
2021
Using a variational approach we study interior regularity for quasiminimizers of a $(p,q)$-Dirichlet integral, as well as regularity results up to the boundary, in the setting of a metric space equipped with a doubling measure and supporting a Poincar\'{e} inequality. For the interior regularity, we use De Giorgi type conditions to show that quasiminimizers are locally H\"{o}lder continuous and they satisfy Harnack inequality, the strong maximum principle, and Liouville's Theorem. Furthermore, we give a pointwise estimate near a boundary point, as well as a sufficient condition for H\"older continuity and a Wiener type regularity condition for continuity up to the boundary. Finally, we cons…
Finite element approximation of vector fields given by curl and divergence
1981
In this paper a finite element approximation scheme for the system curl is considered. The use of pointwise approximation of the boundary condition leads to a nonconforming method. The error estimate is proved and numerically tested.
