Rotations, squeezing, and the unitary transformation operator from individual particles to Jacobi variables

Abstract

A unitary operator for the transformation from individual particles to Jacobi variables is constructed explicitly for particles of arbitrary masses. It is expressed as a product of rotation and squeezing operators using only canonical variables.

Simple construction of the unitary operator to transform from individual particles to Jacobi coordinates

Fan Hong‐Yi, Jack Vanderlinde

The unitary operator for transforming individual particles' coordinates to Jacobi coordinates is constructed in terms of a simple mapping of the classical transformation to quantum Hilbert space in Dirac's coordinate representation. The corresponding normally ordered form of the unitary operator is easily obtained by integration within ordered products.

Observables of Relativistic Particles

L. M. Garrido, J. Sesma

We study the most general unitary transformation that transforms the Hamiltonians of particles of spins 0, 12, or 1, into Hamiltonians containing even or odd matrices only. We present also the expressions for the position operators for each transformation that are valid for the three kinds of particles mentioned above.

Applications of the Jacobi group to Quantum Mechanics

Stefan Berceanu, Andrei H Gheorghe

Infinitesimal holomorphic realizations for the Schrödinger-Weil representation and the discrete series representations of the Jacobi group are constructed. Explicit expressions of the basic differential operators are obtained. The squeezed states for the unitary irreducible representation of the Jacobi group are introduced. Matrix elements of the squeezed operators, expectation values of polynomial operators in infinitesimal generators of the Jacobi group, the squeezing region and a description of Mandel's parameter are presented.

Position operators for the relativistic non-interacting n-particle system

Ulrich Mutze

The subject under consideration is a system of n non-interacting particles with spin, being described by a tensor product of n unitary irreducible massive representations of the Poincare group. A unitary transformation that effects a separation of centre-of-mass variables and internal variables is constructed. By means of this transformation, for any of the n particles there are constructed two position operators both acting on the internal variables only. The first of these operators (called the internal position) commutes with all spatial translations and with the centre-of-mass position, the second one (called the impact position) commutes moreover with all time translations. It is argued that the impact position may be interpreted as the internal position taken at the instant when the n particles are most closely together. By considering spatial separation properties, it is shown that both the internal position and the impact position of any particle depend essentially on the location of all particles of the system.

Multipartite State Representations in Multi-mode Fock Space and Their Squeezing Transformations

Yuan Hong-Chun, Heng-Mei Li, Qi Kai-Guo

We present the continuous state vector of the total coordinate of multi-particle and the state vector of their total momentum, respectively, which possess completeness relation in multi-mode Fock space by virtue of the integration within an order product (IWOP) technique. We also calculate the transition from classical transformation of variables in the states to quantum unitary operator, deduce a new multi-mode squeezing operator, and discuss its squeezing effect. In progress, it indicates that the IWOP technique provides a convenient way to construct new representation in quantum mechanics.
