Abstract

In this paper, we find the exact solution for the generalized time-dependent harmonic oscillator by making use of the Lewis-Riesenfeld theory. Then, the adiabatic asymptotic limit of the exact solution is discussed and the Berry's phase for the oscillator obtained. We proceed to use the exact solution to construct the coherent state and calculate the corresponding classical Hannay's angle.
