Abstract

With the use of two kinds of boson operators, a new boson representation of the |$su(2)$|-algebra is proposed. The basic idea comes from the pseudo |$su(1,1)$|-algebra recently given by the present authors [Y. Tsue et al., Prog. Theor. Exp. Phys. 2013, 103D04 (2013)]. It forms a striking contrast to the Schwinger boson representation of the |$su(2)$|-algebra, which is also based on two kinds of bosons. It is proved that this new boson representation obeys the |$su(2)$|-algebra in a certain subspace in the whole boson space constructed by the Schwinger boson representation of the |$su(1,1)$|-algebra. This representation may be suitable for describing the time dependence of the system interacting with the external environment in the framework of the thermo field dynamics formalism, i.e., phase space doubling. Further, several deformations related to the |$su(2)$|-algebra in this boson representation are discussed. On the basis of these deformed algebras, various types of time evolution of a simple boson system are investigated.

A pseudo su(1,1)-algebraic deformation of the Cooper pair in the su(2)-algebraic many-fermion model

Y. Tsue, Constança Providência, João da Providência +1 more

A pseudo su(1,1)-algebra is formulated as a possible deformation of the Cooper pair in the su(2)-algebraic many-fermion system. With the aid of this algebra, it is possible to describe the behavior of individual fermions which are generated as the result of interaction with the external environment. The form presented in this paper is a generalization of a certain simple case developed recently by the authors. The basic idea follows the su(1,1) algebra in the Schwinger boson representation for treating energy transfer between the harmonic oscillator and the external environment. The Hamiltonian is given following the idea of phase space doubling in the thermo-field dynamics formalism, and the time-dependent variational method is applied to this Hamiltonian. Its trial state is constructed in the frame deformed from the BCS-Bogoliubov approach to superconductivity. Several numerical results are shown.

Schwinger-Type Boson Realization for the su(4) Algebra: In Relation to the Description of Many-Fermion Systems in Pairing Correlation

M. Yamamura, A. Kuriyama, Teiji Kunihiro

Considering the present situation of Lie-algebraic studies of high-temperature superconductivity, a Schwinger-type boson realization of the su(4) algebra is investigated. The basic framework comes from a possible form of the su(n) and the su(n,1) algebras in the Schwinger representation, which was recently proposed by two of the present authors (M. Y. & A. K.), together with J. da Providência. The form investigated in this paper is, in some sense, a natural extension of the Schwinger boson representation for the so(5), so(4) and su(2)⊗su(2) algebras, which was also proposed by the present authors. The orthogonal set for the irreducible representation of the su(4) algebra is completely analogous to that expressed in terms of fermion operators for pairing correlation.

Deformed Boson Scheme including Conventional q-Deformation in Time-Dependent Variational Method. III: Deformation of the su(2,1)-Algebra in Terms of Three Kinds of Boson Operators

A. Kuriyama, Constança Providência, João da Providência +2 more

The basic idea presented in Parts I and II for the deformed boson scheme is applied to the case of the su(2,1)-algebra for describing many-body systems consisting of three kinds of boson operators. A possible form of the coherent state for the su(2,1)-algebra is generalized, and the deformed su(2,1)-algebra is presented. As an application, the time evolution of the statistically mixed state in a certain boson system, which has already been investigated by the present authors, is reinvestigated.

A New Boson Realization of the Two-Level Pairing Model in a Many-Fermion System and Its Classical Counterpart: -- The Role of the su(2) su(1,1)-Coherent State in the Schwinger Boson Representation for the su(2) su(2)-Algebra --

Constança Providência, João da Providência, Y. Tsue +1 more

A new method for describing the two-level pairing model in a many-fermion system is presented. The basic idea comes from the Schwinger boson representation for the su(2) ⊗ su(2)-algebra, in which four kinds of boson operators govern the dynamics. It is well known that in the original fermion space, it is almost impossible to introduce any trial state for the variation except the BCS state in the framework of the mean field approximation. However, in the Schwinger boson representation, various trial states can be defined on the condition that the mean field approximation is useful. In these states, the su(2) ⊗ su(1,1)-coherent state is mainly discussed in this paper.
