ENTANGLED STATE REPRESENTATION FOR A PARTICLE ON A CIRCLE STUDIED IN TERMS OF BOSONIC OPERATOR REALIZATION OF ANGULAR MOMENTUM
Hong-Yi Fan
Abstract
By introducing the bosonic operator realization of angular momentum, we establish the entangled state representation for describing quantum mechanics of a particle on a circle. The phase operator, the angular momentum eigenstates, the lowering and ascending operators for angular momentum are all well expressed in the bosonic realization with the aid of appropriate entangled states, i.e. we establish a new formalism for the quantum mechanics of a particle on a circle.
