The uncertainty principle as invariant of motion for time-dependent Hamiltonians
Creators
Description
A general expression of the Uncertainty Principle is presented. Applying a density matrix formalism, we show that it is an invariant of motion for time-dependent Hamiltonian systems whose dynamics can be contained into an antisymmetric matrix G. The procedure to find the G-matrix is outlined and some examples are briefly shown
