Methods for the approximate numerical integration of the time dependent Schrodinger equation with given initial conditions (the initial wave packet) are presented. The methods are based on the Schrodinger representation of the quantum dynamic system. The quantum dynamic equations are transformed into Hamilton-Jacobi type equations of motion as they occur in multi particle classical dynamics, i.e. standard techniques in molecular dynamics can be applied for the integration. The dynamics of minimum uncertainty Gaussian wave packets in strongly nonharmonic, nonlinearly coupled oscillators are studied as examples. The numerically exact solutions are compared to time dependent SCF approximations of the wave packet.

HAMILTON-JACOBI DYNAMICS FOR THE SOLUTION OF TIME-DEPENDENT QUANTUM PROBLEMS .1. FORMALISM AND WAVE-PACKET PROPAGATION IN ONE-DIMENSION YURTSEVER, E; BRICKMANN, J (1994-04-01) Two methods for the numerical integration of the time-dependent Schrodinger equation with given initial conditions (initial wave packet) are presented. The first method (method A) is based on the Schrodinger representation of the quantum-dynamical system while the second one (method B) is based upon the intermediate representation. In both cases the quantum dynamical equation is transformed into a system of Hamilton-Jacobi type equations of motion as occurring in multi particle classical dynamics, i.e. stan...
Effective-mass Klein-Gordon-Yukawa problem for bound and scattering states Arda, Altug; Sever, Ramazan (2011-09-01) Bound and scattering state solutions of the effective-mass Klein-Gordon equation are obtained for the Yukawa potential with any angular momentum l. Energy eigenvalues, normalized wave functions, and scattering phase shifts are calculated as well as for the constant mass case. Bound state solutions of the Coulomb potential are also studied as a limiting case. Analytical and numerical results are compared with the ones obtained before.

Numerical solution of nonlinear reaction-diffusion and wave equations Meral, Gülnihal; Tezer, Münevver; Department of Mathematics (2009) In this thesis, the two-dimensional initial and boundary value problems (IBVPs) and the one-dimensional Cauchy problems defined by the nonlinear reaction- diffusion and wave equations are numerically solved. The dual reciprocity boundary element method (DRBEM) is used to discretize the IBVPs defined by single and system of nonlinear reaction-diffusion equations and nonlinear wave equation, spatially. The advantage of DRBEM for the exterior regions is made use of for the latter problem. The differential quad...
Casimir energy of the massless conformal scalar field on S-2 by the point-splitting method Bayin, SS; Ozcan, M (1997-10-01) We calculate the Casimir energy of the massless conformal scalar held on the surface (S-2) of a 3 dimensional Riemann sphere by using the point-splitting, mode sum and the zeta-function renormalization methods. We also consider the half space case with both the Dirichlet and the Neumann boundary conditions. This problem is interesting since the Casimir energy could be calculated analytically by various methods, thus allowing us to compare different regularization schemes.

Effective-mass Dirac equation for Woods-Saxon potential: Scattering, bound states, and resonances AYDOĞDU, OKTAY; Arda, Altug; Sever, Ramazan (2012-04-01) Approximate scattering and bound state solutions of the one-dimensional effective-mass Dirac equation with the Woods-Saxon potential are obtained in terms of the hypergeometric-type functions. Transmission and reflection coefficients are calculated by using behavior of the wave functions at infinity. The same analysis is done for the constant mass case. It is also pointed out that our results are in agreement with those obtained in literature. Meanwhile, an analytic expression is obtained for the transmissi...
