Abstract

The problem of finding covariance matrices that remain constant in time for arbitrary multi-dimensional quadratic Hamiltonians (including those with time-dependent coefficients) is considered. General solutions are obtained.

Keywords: charged particle in homogeneous magnetic fields; covariance matrix; generalized frequency converter; positively (semi)definite matrices; symplectic transformations.
