We present a field theoretical model of point-form dynamics which exhibits resonance scattering. In particular, we construct point-form Poincare generators explicitly from field operators and show that in the vector spaces for the in-states and out-states (endowed with certain analyticity and topological properties suggested by the structure of the $S$-matrix) these operators integrate to furnish differentiable representations of the causal Poincare semigroup, the semidirect product of the semigroup of spacetime translations into the forward lightcone and the group of Lorentz transformations. We also show that there exists a class of emph{irreducible} representations of the Poincare semigroup defined by a complex mass and a half-integer spin. The complex mass characterizing the representation naturally appears in the construction as the square root of the pole position of the propagator. These representations provide a description of resonances in the same vein as Wigners unitary irreducible representations of the Poincare group provide a description of stable particles.

We deal with the reversible dynamics of coupled quantum and classical systems. Based on a recent proposal by the authors, we exploit the theory of hybrid quantum-classical wavefunctions to devise a closure model for the coupled dynamics in which both the quantum density matrix and the classical Liouville distribution retain their initial positive sign. In this way, the evolution allows identifying a classical and a quantum state in interaction at all times. After combining Koopmans Hilbert-space method in classical mechanics with van Hoves unitary representations in prequantum theory, the closure model is made available by the variational structure underlying a suitable wavefunction factorization. Also, we use Poisson reduction by symmetry to show that the hybrid model possesses a noncanonical Poisson structure that does not seem to have appeared before. As an example, this structure is specialized to the case of quantum two-level systems.
We consider normal forms in `magnetic bottle type Hamiltonians of the form $H=frac{1}{2}(rho^2_rho+omega^2_1rho^2) +frac{1}{2}p^2_z+hot$ (second frequency $omega_2$ equal to zero in the lowest order). Our main results are: i) a novel method to constr uct the normal form in cases of resonance, and ii) a study of the asymptotic behavior of both the non-resonant and the resonant series. We find that, if we truncate the normal form series at order $r$, the series remainder in both constructions decreases with increasing $r$ down to a minimum, and then it increases with $r$. The computed minimum remainder turns to be exponentially small in $frac{1}{Delta E}$, where $Delta E$ is the mirror oscillation energy, while the optimal order scales as an inverse power of $Delta E$. We estimate numerically the exponents associated with the optimal order and the remainders exponential asymptotic behavior. In the resonant case, our novel method allows to compute a `quasi-integral (i.e. truncated formal integral) valid both for each particular resonance as well as away from all resonances. We applied these results to a specific magnetic bottle Hamiltonian. The non resonant normal form yields theorerical invariant curves on a surface of section which fit well the empirical curves away from resonances. On the other hand the resonant normal form fits very well both the invariant curves inside the islands of a particular resonance as well as the non-resonant invariant curves. Finally, we discuss how normal forms allow to compute a critical threshold for the onset of global chaos in the magnetic bottle.
Sinkhorn proved that every entry-wise positive matrix can be made doubly stochastic by multiplying with two diagonal matrices. In this note we prove a recently conjectured analogue for unitary matrices: every unitary can be decomposed into two diagon al unitaries and one whose row- and column sums are equal to one. The proof is non-constructive and based on a reformulation in terms of symplectic topology. As a corollary, we obtain a decomposition of unitary matrices into an interlaced product of unitary diagonal matrices and discrete Fourier transformations. This provides a new decomposition of linear optics arrays into phase shifters and canonical multiports described by Fourier transformations.
When atoms are exposed to intense laser or microwave pulses ~10% of the atoms are found in Rydberg states subsequent to the pulse, even if it is far more intense than required for static field ionization. The optical spectra of the surviving Li atoms in the presence of a 38 GHz microwave field suggest how atoms survive an intense pulse. The spectra exhibit a periodic train of peaks 38 GHz apart. One peak is just below the limit, and with a 90 V/cm field amplitude the train extends from 300 GHz above the limit to 3000 GHz below it. The spectra and quantum mechanical calculations imply that the atoms survive in quasi stable states in which the Rydberg electron is in a weakly bound orbit infrequently returning to the ionic core during the intense pulse.

We extend the new perturbation formula of equilibrium states by Hastings to KMS states of general $W^*$-dynamical systems.
