Under a new quantization scheme, the exact wave functions of the time-dependent driven damped harmonic oscillator with time-dependent mass and frequency are obtained. The wave functions are shape-unchanging wave packet with the center moving along the classical trajectory. The total phase of the wave function is explicitly expressed as the sum of the dynamical phase and the geometrical phase. PACS Nos.: 03.65-w, 05.40-a

We derive quantum solutions of a generalized inverted or repulsive harmonic oscillator with arbitrary time-dependent mass and frequency using the quantum invariant method and linear invariants, and write its wave functions in terms of solutions of a second-order ordinary differential equation that describes the amplitude of the damped classical inverted oscillator. Afterwards, we construct Gaussian wave packet solutions and calculate the fluctuations in coordinate and momentum, the associated uncertainty relation, and the quantum correlations between coordinate and momentum. As a particular case, we apply our general development to the generalized inverted Caldirola–Kanai oscillator.

The quantization of a driven harmonic oscillator with time dependent mass and frequency (DHTDMF) is considered. We observe that the driven term has no influence on the quantization of the oscillator. It is found that the DHTDMF corresponds the general quadratic Hamiltonian. The present solution is critically compared with existing solutions of DHTDMF.

The application of the integrals of the motion of a quantum system in deriving Green function or propagator is established. The Greenfunction is shown to be the eigenfunction of the integrals of the motion which described initial points of the system trajectory in the phasespace. The explicit expressions for the Green functions of the damped harmonic oscillator, the harmonic oscillator with strongly pulsatingmass, and the harmonic oscillator with mass growing with time are obtained in co-ordinate representations. The connection between theintegrals of the motion method and other method such as Feynman path integral and Schwinger method are also discussed.

In this paper, we study the generalized harmonic oscillator with arbitrary time-dependent mass and frequency subjected to a linear velocity-dependent frictional force from classical and quantum points of view. We obtain the solution of the classical equation of motion of this system for some particular cases and derive an equation of motion that describes three different systems. Furthermore, with the help of the quantum invariant method and using quadratic invariants we solve analytically and exactly the time-dependent Schrödinger equation for this system. Afterwards, we construct coherent states for the quantized system and employ them to investigate some of the system's quantum properties such as quantum fluctuations of the coordinate and the momentum as well as the corresponding uncertainty product. In addition, we derive the geometric, dynamical and Berry phases for this nonstationary system. Finally, we evaluate the dynamical and Berry phases for three special cases and surprisingly find identical expressions for the dynamical phase and the same formulae for the Berry's phase.
