SISSA main building, lecture room A-136


*Claudia Negulescu <http://www.math.univ-toulouse.fr/%7Ecnegules/>* (UPS 
Tolouse III)
*Numerical aspects concerning an efficient resolution of the Schrödinger 
equation. Application to decoherence.*


*Summary*: The numerical resolution of the time-dependent Schrödinger 
equation may be extremely challenging, due to several difficulties 
related with:
* the high dimensionality of the problem (many-body molecular physics)
* the possible presence of non-linearities
* the multiple scale nature of the associated dynamics (slow nuclei vs 
rapid-moving electrons)
* the highly oscillatory wave functions (when the Schrödinger equation 
is taken in the semi-classical regime).
In this talk, we shall discuss some examples of the slow-rapid particle 
dynamics, which is intimately related to the description of the quantum 
decoherence effects. The goal is to study in an efficient numerical way 
the interaction between a quantum system and its environment.
