Abstract

Following the lines of the recent paper of J.-P. Gazeau and F. H. Szafraniec [J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 44, 495201 (2011)], we construct here three types of coherent states, related to the Hermite polynomials in a complex variable which are orthogonal with respect to a non-rotationally invariant measure. We investigate relations between these coherent states and obtain the relationship between them and the squeezed states of quantum optics. We also obtain a second realization of the canonical coherent states in the Bargmann space of analytic functions, in terms of a squeezed basis. All this is done in the flavor of the classical approach of V. Bargmann [Commun. Pure Appl. Math. 14, 187 (1961)].

Segal-Bargmann type spaces related to non-rotational measure, and entanglement of bipartite squeezed coherent states

K. Górska, A. Horzela, Damian Kołaczek +2 more

Entanglement of bipartite squeezed states generated by holomorphic Hermite functions of two complex variables is investigated using phase-space approach based on the Wigner distribution function. Orthogonality of the holomorphic Hermite functions implies the relationship between certain real parameter associated with the non-rotational measure in the Bargmann space and the squeezing parameter. The mutual relation between squeezing and entanglement is elucidated with the help of Peres-Horodecki positive partial transpose criterion formulated in the phase-space version for continuous-variable systems. The quantitative characteristics of the entanglement is determined using the log-negativity criterion. The oscillator-like model of a two-particle quantum-mechanical system is developed to illustrate the presented findings.

Holomorphic Hermite polynomials and a non-commutative plane

Jean‐Pierre Gazeau, Franciszek Hugon Szafraniec

One more coherent state quantization of a complex plane is presented. Although the complex plane is equipped with a non-rotationally invariant measure, we still obtain a canonical commutation rule (up to a simple rescaling). We explain how the involved coherent states, built from holomorphic continuations of Hermite polynomials, are related to the non-commutative plane.

O(N)symmetries, sum rules for generalized Hermite polynomials and squeezed states

Jamil Daboul, Salomon Sylvain Mizrahi

Quantum optics has been dealing with coherent states, squeezed states and many other non-classical states. The associated mathematical framework makes use of special functions as Hermite polynomials, Laguerre polynomials and others. In this connection we here present some formal results that follow directly from the group O ( N ) of complex transformations. Motivated by the squeezed states structure, we introduce the generalized Hermite polynomials , which include as particular cases, the Hermite polynomials as well as the heat polynomials. Using generalized raising operators, we derive new sum rules for the , which are covariant under O ( N ) transformations. The and the associated sum rules become useful for evaluating Wigner functions in a straightforward manner. As a byproduct, we use one of these sum rules, on the operator level, to obtain raising and lowering operators for the Laguerre polynomials and show that they generate an sl (2, R ) ≃ su (1, 1) algebra.

Properties of Squeezed-State Excitations

Man'ko, V I, Wünsche, A

The photon distribution function of a discrete series of excitations of squeezed coherent states is given explicitly in terms of Hermite polynomials of two variables. The Wigner and the coherent-state quasiprobabilities are also presented in closed form through the Hermite polynomials and their limiting cases. Expectation values of photon numbers and their dispersion are calculated. Some three-dimensional plots of photon distributions for different squeezing parameters demonstrating oscillatory behaviour are given.
