โœฆ Synopsis

a b s t r a c t I discuss the problem of time-dependent harmonic oscillators on the basis of a periodic functional approach to the calculus of variations. Both the Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formulations are explored and discussed in some detail. Some interesting consequences are revealed.

A harmonic oscillator with time-dependent force constant when perturbed by a weak static quartic anharmonicity ti4, 1 small, is shown to generate new features in the dynamics. For weak coupling, both time-dependent perturbation theoretical analysis and near-exact numerical calculations predict that

The analytical solution of the quantum driven harmonic oscillator of time dependent mass and frequency (DHTDMF) is exploited to obtain the photon-bunching, photon-antibunching and the nonclassical photon statistics of the input coherent light coupled to the oscillator. We observe that the model Hami
