LEGENDRE POLYNOMIALS AS THE NORMALIZATION OF PHOTON-SUBTRACTED SQUEEZED STATES

Abstract

By converting the photon-subtracted squeezed state (PSSS) to a squeezed Hermite-polynomial excitation state we find that the normalization factor of PSSS is an m-order Legendre polynomial of the squeezing parameter, where m is the number of subtracted photons. Some new relations about the Legendre polynomials are obtained by this analysis. We also show that the PSSS can also be treated as a Hermite-polynomial excitation on squeezed vacuum state.

ON THE NORMALIZED TWO-MODE PHOTON-SUBTRACTED SQUEEZED VACUUM STATE

Xue-xiang Xu, Liyun Hu, Hong-Yi Fan

We show that the two-mode photon-subtracted squeezed state (TPSSS) is a squeezed two-variable Hermite polynomial excitation state, and we can therefore determine its normalization as a Jacobi polynomial of the squeezing parameter. Some new relations about the Jacobi polynomials are obtained by this analysis. We also show that the TPSSS can be treated as a two-variable Hermite-polynomial excitation on squeezed vacuum state. The technique of integration within an ordered product of operators brings convenience in our derivation.

In this paper,we introduce photon-added and photon-subtracted squeezed vacuum state (PASV and PSSV) and obtain their normalized factors,which have the similar forms involved in Lengendre polynomials.Moreover,we give the compact expressions of Wigner function,which are related to single-variable Hermite polynomials.Especially,we compare their nonclassicality in terms of Mandel Q-factor and the negativity of Wigner function.

New approach for normalization and photon-number distributions of photon-added (-subtracted) squeezed thermal states

Liyun Hu, Zhiming Zhang

Using the thermal field dynamics theory to convert the thermal state into a "pure" state in doubled Fock space, we find that the average value of e f a † a under squeezed thermal state (STS) is just the generating function of Legendre polynomials.Based on this remarkable result, the normalization and photon-number distributions of m-photon added (or subtracted) STSs are conviently obtained as the Legendre polynomials.This new concise method can be expanded to the entangled case.
