Kaleidoscope of Classical Images and Quantum Coherent States

Abstract

The Schrödinger cat states, constructed from Glauber coherent states and applied for description of qubits are generalized to the kaleidoscope of coherent states, related with regular n-polygon symmetry and the roots of unity. This quantum kaleidoscope is motivated by our method of classical hydrodynamics images in a wedge domain, described by $q$-calculus of analytic functions with $q$ as a primitive root of unity. The cases of the trinity states and the quartet states are described in details. Normalization formula for these states requires introduction of specific combinations of exponential functions with mod 3 and mod 4 symmetry. We show that these states can be generated for an arbitrary $n$ by the Quantum Fourier transform and can provide qutrits, ququats and in general, qudit units of quantum information. Relations of our states with quantum groups and quantum calculus are discussed.

Quantum Group Symmetry for Kaleidoscope of Hydrodynamic Images and Quantum States

Oktay K. Pashaev

The hydrodynamic flow in several bounded domains can be formulated by the image theorems, like the two circle, the wedge and the strip theorems, describing flow by q -periodic functions. Depending on geometry of the domain, parameter q has different geometrical meanings and values. In the special case of the wedge domain, with q as a primitive root of unity, the set of images appears as a regular polygon kaleidoscope. By interpreting the wave function in the Fock-Barman representation as complex potential of a flow, we find mod n projection operators in the space of quantum coherent states, related with operator q -numbers. They determine the units of quantum information as kaleidoscope of quantum states with quantum group symmetry of the q-oscillator. Expansion of Glauber coherent states to these units and corresponding entropy are discussed.

Special functions with mod n symmetry and kaleidoscope of quantum coherent states

Aygül Koçak, Oktay K. Pashaev

The set of mod n functions associated with primitive roots of unity and discrete Fourier transform is introduced. These functions naturally appear in description of superposition of coherent states related with regular polygon, which we call kaleidoscope of quantum coherent states. Displacement operators for kaleidoscope states are obtained by mod n exponential functions with operator argument and non-commutative addition formulas. Normalization constants, average number of photons, Heinsenberg uncertainty relations and coordinate representation of wave functions with mod n symmetry are expressed in a compact form by these functions.

Generalized Schrödinger cat states and their classical emulation

Armando Pérez-Leija, Alexander Szameit, I. Ramos-Prieto +2 more

We demonstrate that superpositions of coherent states and displaced Fock states, also referred to as generalized Schr\"odinger cat states, can be generated by application of a deformed Glauber displacement operator on number states, coherent states, and displaced Fock states. Based on such a deformed displacement operator we introduce a deformed version of the so-called Glauber photonic lattices. These novel lattices are endowed with alternating positive and negative coupling coefficients and give rise to classical analogs of Schr\"odinger cat states. Finally, we show that the analytic propagator of these new Glauber-Fock arrays explicitly contains the Wigner operator opening the possibility to emulate Wigner functions of the quantum harmonic oscillator in the classical domain.

Generalized hypergeometric coherent states

Thomas Appl, Diethard H Schiller

We introduce a large class of holomorphic quantum states by choosing their normalization functions to be given by generalized hypergeometric functions. We call them generalized hypergeometric states in general, and generalized hypergeometric coherent states in particular, if they allow a resolution of unity. Depending on the domain of convergence of the generalized hypergeometric functions, we distinguish generalized hypergeometric states on the plane, the open unit disc and the unit circle. All states are eigenstates of suitably defined lowering operators. We then study their photon number statistics and phase properties as revealed by the Husimi and Pegg–Barnett phase distributions. On the basis of the generalized hypergeometric coherent states we introduce new analytic representations of arbitrary quantum states in Bargmann and Hardy spaces as well as generalized hypergeometric Husimi distributions and corresponding phase distributions.
