It is shown that q-deformed Coherent Spin States (CSS), belonging to the SU q(2) representation, behave as Intelligent Spin States (ISS). The proof is based on the calculation of spin-squeezing observables, for both CSS and ISS.
Generalized coherent states associated with SU(1,1) Lie algebra are reviewed. A state is called intelligent if it satisfies the strict equality in the Heisenberg uncertainty relation. The eigenvalue problem satisfied by intelligent states (IS) is solved. The IS associated with SU(1,1) Lie algebra are investigated. We have constructed some realizations for our results of IS, and some applications are discussed. Some nonclassical properties such as Glauber second-order correlation function, photon number distribution and squeezing are investigated.
The Robertson–Schrödinger uncertainty relation for two observables A and B is shown to be minimized in the eigenstates of the operator λA+iB, λ being a complex number. Such states, called generalized intelligent states (GIS), can exhibit arbitrarily strong squeezing of A or B. The time evolution of GIS is stable for Hamiltonians which admit linear in A and B invariants. Systems of GIS for the SU(1,1) and SU(2) groups are constructed and discussed. It is shown that SU(1,1) GIS contain all the Perelomov coherent states (CS) and the Barut and Girardello CS while the spin CS are a subset of SU(2) GIS. CS for an arbitrary semisimple Lie group can be considered as a GIS for the quadratures of the Weyl generators.
