WIGNER FUNCTIONS OF THERMO NUMBER STATE, PHOTON SUBTRACTED AND ADDED THERMO VACUUM STATE AT FINITE TEMPERATURE

LI-YUN HU, HONG-YI FAN

Based on Takahashi–Umezawa thermo field dynamics and the order-invariance of Weyl ordered operators under similar transformations, we present a new approach to derive the exact Wigner functions of thermo number state, photon subtracted and added thermo vacuum state. We find that these Wigner functions are related to the Gaussian–Laguerre type functions of temperature, whose statistical properties are then analyzed.

Connection between quantum mechanical and classical time evolution of certain dissipative systems via a dynamical invariant

Dieter Schuch

In a former publication [D. Schuch and M. Moshinsky, Phys. Rev. A 73, 062111 (2006)] we have shown that the time evolution of a quantum system with at most quadratic Hamiltonian that can be described by different methods, namely, the time-dependent Schrödinger equation, the time propagator or Feynman kernel, and the Wigner function is connected via a dynamical invariant, the so-called Ermakov invariant. Since exact invariants of this type also exist for certain effective descriptions of dissipative quantum systems, we will show the relations between these descriptions and the corresponding invariants and will discuss how the results obtained for the conservative systems must be modified in the presence of a linear velocity dependent frictional force.
