Inverse problem and Bertrand's theorem

Yves Grandati, Alain Bérard, Ferhat Menas

The Bertrand's theorem can be formulated as the solution of an inverse problem for a classical unidimensional motion. We show that the solutions of these problems, if restricted to…

Semiclassical Dynamics of Dirac particles interacting with a Static Gravitational Field

Pierre Gosselin, Alain Bérard, Herve Mohrbach

The semiclassical limit for Dirac particles interacting with a static gravitational field is investigated. A Foldy-Wouthuysen transformation which diagonalizes at the semiclassical…

Spin Hall effect of Photons in a Static Gravitational Field

Pierre Gosselin, Alain Bérard, Herve Mohrbach

Starting from a Hamiltonian description of the photon within the set of Bargmann-Wigner equations we derive new semiclassical equations of motion for the photon propagating in stat…

Semiclassical Diagonalization of Quantum Hamiltonian and Equations of Motion with Berry Phase Corrections

Pierre Gosselin, Alain Bérard, Herve Mohrbach

It has been recently found that the equations of motion of several semiclassical systems must take into account terms arising from Berry phases contributions. Those terms are respo…

Semiclassical Dynamics of Electrons in Magnetic Bloch Bands: a Hamiltonian Approach

Pierre Gosselin, Fehrat Ménas, Alain Bérard +1

y formally diagonalizing with accuracy the Hamiltonian of electrons in a crystal subject to electromagnetic perturbations, we resolve the debate on the Hamiltonian nature o…
