We shall discuss reducibility of these equations on the torus with a small potential that depends quasi-periodically on time. Reducibility amounts to "reduceā€ the equation to a time-independent linear equation with pure point spectrum in which case all solutions will be of Floquet type.

For the Schrodinger equation, this has been proven in a joint work with S. Kuksin, and for the wave equation we shall report on a work in progress with B. Grebert and S. Kuksin.
