• Abstract: In this work, we introduce a new realization of exactly-solvable time-dependent Hamiltonians based on the solutions of the fourth Painlev\'e and the Ermakov equations. The latter is achieved by introducing a shape-invariant condition between an unknown quantum invariant and a set of third-order intertwining operators with time-dependent coefficients. The new quantum invariant is constructed by adding a deformation term to the well-known parametric oscillator invariant. Such a deformation depends explicitly on time through the solutions of the Ermakov equation, which ensures the regularity of the new time-dependent potential of the Hamiltonian at each time. On the other hand, with the aid of the proper reparametrization, the fourth Painlev\'e equation appears, the parameters of which dictate the spectral behavior of the quantum invariant. In particular, the eigenfunctions of the third-order ladder operators lead to several sequences of solutions to the Schr\"odinger equation, determined in terms of the solutions of a Riccati equation, Okamoto polynomials, or nonlinear bound states of the derivative nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation. Remarkably, it is noticed that the solutions in terms of the nonlinear bound states lead to a quantum invariant with equidistant eigenvalues, which contains both an (N+1)-dimensional and an infinite sequence of eigenfunctions. The resulting family of time-dependent Hamiltonians is such that, to the authors' knowledge, have been unnoticed in the literature of stationary and nonstationary systems.

  This work explores the behaviour of a noncommutative harmonic oscillator in a time-dependent background. We examine the system when expressed in terms of commutative variables, utilizing a generalized form of the standard Bopp-shift relations. Our study is consistent with the findings in [1], specifically in a particular limit where the coordinate mapping relations reduce to the standard Bopp-shift relations.

  We reformulate the technique of third quantization in a way that explicitly connects all three methods. We first show that our formulation reveals a fundamental dissipative symmetry present in all quadratic bosonic or fermionic Lindbladians. For bosons, we then show that the Wigner function and the characteristic function can be thought of as ''wavefunctions'' of the density matrix.
