In this communication we investigate the quantum statistics of three harmonic oscillators mutually interacting with each other considering the modes are initially in Fock states. After solving the equations of motion, the squeezing phenomenon, sub-Poissonian statistics and quasiprobability functions are discussed. We demonstrate that the interaction is able to produce squeezing of different types. We show also that certain types of Fock states can evolve in this interaction into thermal state and squeezed thermal state governed by the interaction parameters.

We investigate the quantum statistics of three harmonic oscillators mutually interacting with each other determining quadratures squeezing, second-order correlation function and phase space distributions. We assume that the modes are initially prepared in coherent states. We show that the initial coherent states can evolve into squeezed states which are not minimum uncertainty states governed by the interaction parameters. Moreover, we demonstrate that the interaction is able to produce squeezing of different types, i.e. single-mode, two-mode and three-mode squeezing. Further, we show for specific modes and under certain conditions the oscillatory behaviour in the photon-number distribution and the bifurcation phenomenon in the phase distribution for squeezed light.
Evolutions of quantum noise, characterized by quadrature squeezing parameter and Fano factor, and of mixedness, quantified by quantum von Neumann and linear entropies, of a pumped dissipative non-linear oscillator are studied. The model can describe a signal mode interacting with a thermal reservoir in a parametrically pumped cavity with a Kerr non-linearity. It is discussed that the initial pure states, including coherent states, Fock states, and finite superpositions of coherent states evolve into the same steady mixed state as verified by the quantum relative entropy and the Bures metric. It is shown analytically and verified numerically that the steady state can be well approximated by a nonclassical Gaussian state exhibiting quadrature squeezing and sub-Poissonian statistics for the cold thermal reservoir. It is found a rapid increase in the mixedness, especially for the initial Fock states and superpositions of coherent states, during a very short time interval, and then for longer evolution times a decrease in the mixedness to the same, for all the initial states, and relatively low value of the nonclassical Gaussian state.

We investigate the quantum statistics of three time-dependent coupled oscillators in the presence of multiphoton processes. The system is connected with the two-atom multiphoton Tavis-Cummings model. The solution of the Heisenberg equations of the motion is obtained in a compact form. We assume that the modes are initially prepared in coherent states, and we discuss nonclassical phenomena (squeezing and sub-Poissonian behavior). Further, we examine the joint quasi-distribution functions as well as photon-number distribution and its factorial moments. The system has shown that the nonclassical effect is apparent in compound modes (1,3) and (2,3). Moreover, the superstructure phenomenon is observed when the photon transition is increased.
In a squeezed state, the variance in one canonical variable may be suppressed below that normally associated with either the ground state or a coherent state, at the expense of an expansion in the variance of the conjugate variable. Squeezed states are usually discussed in the context of quantized light fields. The principal properties of squeezed states are demonstrated using the motion of quantum mechanical simple harmonic oscillators. The motion of a single oscillator is discussed to introduce the key concepts of squeezing, including quadrature operators, and the error contours of the Wigner function describing the quantum quasiprobability distributions in phase space of the oscillator motion. The main topic of two-mode squeezing is then addressed, in which the fluctuations in a system of two oscillators are tightly correlated. The existence of squeezing is demonstrated in normal mode coordinates representing motion of superpositions of the motion of the two oscillators. The fluctuations within a single oscillator are shown to increase when squeezing increases in the normal modes, generating thermal noise in individual mode subsystems.
We study the statistical properties of squeezed Kerr states generated by squeezing, with a two-photon parametric process, the output of a Kerr medium whose input is coherent light. The squeezing has the effect of allowing the photon statistics to depend on the Kerr nonlinearity. Without the squeezing the statistics are Poissonian, but after squeezing they may be either sub-Poissonian or super-Poissonian. We also study the Q-function quasiprobability distribution for these states and related distributions associated with the quantum-mechanical phase. Finally, we show that quadrature squeezing can be enhanced and that squeezing and sub-Poissonian statistics can coexist.
