TLDR
In this paper, the exact Schr\"odinger wave functions for a harmonic oscillator with time-dependent mass and frequency were obtained using the Lewis and Riesenfeld invariant method.
Abstract
We use the Lewis and Riesenfeld invariant method [J. Math. Phys. 10, 1458 (1969)] to obtain the exact Schr\"odinger wave functions for a harmonic oscillator with time-dependent mass and frequency. Exact coherent states for such system are also constructed.

Solution of the Schrödinger equation for time-dependent 1D harmonic oscillators using the orthogonal functions invariant

TL;DR: In this paper, an extension of the classical orthogonal functions invariant to the quantum domain is presented, expressed in terms of the Hamiltonian, and unitary transformations which involve the auxiliary function of this quantum invariant are used to solve the timedependent Schrodinger equation for a harmonic oscillator with time-dependent parameter.

On the invariant method for the time-dependent non-Hermitian Hamiltonians

TL;DR: In this paper, a quasi-Hermitian transformation is proposed to deal with certain time-dependent non-hermitian Hamiltonian operators that generate a real phase in their time evolution, which implies that the dynamics is governed by unitary time evolution.
