Improved energy estimates for a class of time-dependent perturbed Hamiltonians

We consider time-dependent perturbations which are relatively bounded with respect to the square root of an unperturbed Hamiltonian operator, and whose commutator with the latter is controlled by the full perturbed Hamiltonian. The perturbation is modulated by two auxiliary parameters, one regulates its intensity as a prefactor and the other one controls its time-scale via a regular function, whose derivative is compactly supported in a finite interval. We introduce a natural generalization of energy conservation in the case of time-dependent Hamiltonians: the boundedness of the two-parameter unitary propagator for the physical evolution with respect to the n/2-th power energy norm for all [Formula: see text] . We provide bounds of the n/2-th power energy norms, uniformly in time and in the time-scale parameter, for the unitary propagators, generated by the time-dependent perturbed Hamiltonian and by the unperturbed Hamiltonian in the interaction picture. The physically interesting model of Landau-type Hamiltonians with an additional weak and time-slowly-varying electric potential of unit drop is included in this framework.
