Abstract

Using the coherent state representation of Wigner operator and the technique of integration within an ordered product (IWOP) of operators, this paper derives the Wigner function for the Hermite polynomial state (HPS). The tomogram of the HPS is calculated with the aid of newly introduced intermediate coordinate-momentum representation in quantum optics.

Wigner functions and tomograms of the even and odd binomial states

Zhang Xiao-Yan, Ji‐Suo Wang, Meng Xiang-Guo +1 more

Using the coherent state representation of Wigner operator and the technique of integration within an ordered product (IWOP) of operators, the Wigner functions of the even and odd binomial states (EOBSs) are obtained. The physical meaning of the Wigner functions for the EOBSs is given by means of their marginal distributions. Moreover, the tomograms of the EOBSs are calculated by virtue of intermediate coordinate-momentum representation in quantum optics.

New Approach for Calculating Tomograms of Quantum States by Virtue of the IWOP Technique

Fan Hong‐Yi, Ji‐Suo Wang

We show that for tomographic approach there exist two mutual conjugate quantum states | p ,σ,τ⟩ and | x ,μ,ν⟩ (named the intermediate coordinate-momentum representation), and the two Radon transforms of the Wigner operator are just the pure-state density matrices | p ⟩ σ,τσ,τ ⟨ p | and | x ⟩ λ,νλ,ν ⟨ x | respectively. As a result, the tomogram of quantum states can be considered as the module-square of the states' wave function in these two representations. Throughout the paper we fully employ the technique of integration within an ordered product of operators. In this way we establish a new convenient formalism of quantum tomogram.

Generalized Fredholm operator equation and its solution based on intermediate coordinate-momentum representation

Hong-Yi Fan, Qin Guo

Based on the intermediate coordinate-momentum representations, we construct the appropriate generalized Fredholm operator equation and then find its solution. The application of this equation for deriving Hermite-polynomial operator formulae is demonstrated. The connection of the generalized Wigner operator to the form of the Gaussian bivariate distribution of random variables in statistics is shown, which is useful for studying the tomogram of quantum states.

Entanglement Involved in Pair Coherent State Studied via Wigner Function Formalism

Liyun Hu, Fan Hong-Yi

We calculate Wigner function, tomogram of the pair coherent state by using its Schmidt decomposition in the coherent state representation. It turns out that the Wigner function can be seen as the quantum entanglement (QE) between two two-variable Hermite polynomials (TVHP) and the tomogram is further simplified as QE of two single-variable Hermite polynomials. The Husimi function of pair coherent state is also calculated.

Wigner functions and tomograms of the photon-depleted even and odd coherent states

Ji‐Suo Wang, Meng Xiang-Guo

Using the coherent state representation of Wigner operator and the technique of integration within an ordered product (IWOP) of operators, this paper derives the Wigner functions for the photon-depleted even and odd coherent states (PDEOCSs). Moreover, in terms of the Wigner functions with respect to the complex parameter α the nonclassical properties of the PDEOCSs are discussed. The results show that the nonclassicality for the state |β, m ⟩ o (or |β, m ⟩ e ) is more pronounced when m is even (or odd). According to the marginal distributions of the Wigner functions, the physical meaning of the Wigner functions is given. Further, the tomograms of the PDEOCSs are calculated with the aid of newly introduced intermediate coordinate-momentum representation in quantum optics.

New operator identities with regard to the two-variable Hermite polynomial by virtue of entangled state representation

Hong‐Chun Yuan, Heng-Mei Li, Xuefen Xu

By virtue of the entangled state representation we concisely derive some new operator identities with regard to the two-variable Hermite polynomial (TVHP). By them and the technique of integration within an ordered product (IWOP) of operators we further derive new generating function formulas of the TVHP. They are useful in quantum optical theoretical calculations. It is seen from this work that by combining the IWOP technique and quantum mechanical representations one can derive some new integration formulas even without really performing the integration.
