The Applications of Coherent State Representation on the Distribution Functions of the Quantum Phase Space

Shuai Wang

By means of the coherent state representation and the IWOP technique,the density matrix of free thermal state can be written as normal product form.And then the Wigner function of free thermal state and the thermal coherent state are reproduced by using the wigner function in coherent state representation.It is found that it is easy to obtain the Wigner function of some quantum states by using the Wigner function defined in terms of the coherent state and the normal product form of operators.

A new finite-dimensional thermal coherent state and its Wigner distribution function

Xiang‐Guo Meng, 王继锁, Bao‐Long Liang

This paper constructs a new type of finite-dimensional thermal coherent states (FDTCS), which differs from the proceeding thermal coherent state in construction, as realisations of SU(2) Lie algebra. Using the technique of integration within an ordered product of operator, it investigates the orthonormality and completeness relation of the FDTCS. Based on the thermal Wigner operator in the thermal entangled state representation, the Wigner function of the FDTCS is obtained. The nonclassical properties of the FDTCS are discussed in terms of the negativity of its Wigner function.

Decoherence of a photon-subtraction-addition coherent state in a thermal environment

Haoliang Zhang, Fang Jia, Xue-xiang Xu +3 more

We investigate the nonclassicality and decoherence of a photon-subtraction-addition coherent state (a++a)m|a in a thermal environment. Its nonclassicality is discussed by deriving analytically Mandel's Q parameter, photon number distribution, and Wigner function. It is shown that if the condition |2z*+ -*|2 1 is satisfied, the Wigner function always presents the negativity for the one-order photon-subtraction-addition coherent state (m=1). Based on the evolution formula of Wigner function, we derive a compact expression for Wigner function in the thermal environment. It is found that when t(1/2)ln[(2N+2)/(2N+1)] there is no negativity for the case of m=1. In addition, the evolution of nonclassicality is discussed in terms of the negative volume of Wigner function.
