Abstract
We discuss the Schr\odinger equation with a time-dependent Hamiltonian that can be written as a linear combination of operators which span a finite-dimensional Lie algebra. The equations of motion for the operators in the Heisenberg representation are shown to be useful in calculating matrix elements and transition probabilities, as well as in obtaining the time-evolution operator. A general time-dependent one-dimensional bilinear Hamiltonian is considered as an illustrative example, and the product form for the time-evolution operator is shown to be global.
