Title Unitary transformations depending on a small parameter Type Journal Article
Year 2012 Publication Proceedings of the Royal Society A Abbreviated Journal Proc. R. Soc. A
Volume 468 Issue 2139 Pages 685-700
Keywords perturbation theory; quantum mechanics; unitary transformation; Magnus expansion
Abstract We formulate a unitary perturbation theory for quantum mechanics inspired by the Lie-Deprit formulation of canonical transformations. The original Hamiltonian is converted into a solvable one by a transformation obtained through a Magnus expansion. This ensures unitarity at every order in a small parameter. A comparison with the standard perturbation theory is provided. We work out the scheme up to order ten with some simple examples.
