Time  dependent Quantum Computing 


This subproject address some techniques for solving the time dependent Schrödinger equation, 
 

$\left( \hat{H} - i
\frac{\partial}{\partial t} \right)\Psi\left(\vec{r},t\right) = 0$


Two solution methods are addressed:

  • Basis  expansion leads to a coupled first order system for the expansion coefficients,
$i \frac {d}{dt}\vec{c} = {\bf M}(t)
\vec{c}$

                           A parallel solver for basis expansion. 
  • Finite difference methods based on  direct propagation through, 
$\Psi\left(\vec{r},T\right ) = e^{-i
\int_0^T \hat{H}(t) dt} \Psi\left(\vec{r},t=0 \right)

                            Examples and programs in  1D   2D and 3D
