I have not read it jet, but I want to point out a book on the adiabatic
theorem to you, which is mathematically very thorough:

S. Teufel, Adiabatic Perturbation Theory in Quantum Dynamics
ISBN 3540407235 - Verlag: Springer, Berlin - Erscheinungsjahr: 2003

I think the second paper explains everything adequately.
