Abstract

New parasupersymmetric coherent states are determined as eigenstates of an annihilation operator. They are the closest parasupersymmetric states to the classical ones.

ON PARASUPERSYMMETRIC COHERENT STATES

J. Beckers, N. Debergh

We determine a parasupersymmetric annihilation operator for the (l-dimensional) harmonic oscillator and construct its eigenstates leading to a basis of parasupersymmetric coherent states with expected degeneracies according to the work of Rubakov and Spiridonov.

Parastatistics, supersymmetry and parasupercoherent states

J. Beckers, N. Debergh

Coherent states are constructed in p=2-parasupersymmetric quantum mechanics in connection with the two relative para-Bose and para-Fermi sets of trilinear structure relations. They are called parasupercoherent states. Parasupersymmetric operators [such as the Hamiltonian and (two) annihilation operators] are introduced and discussed. In particular, the parasuperspectrum is determined and compared with the recent results obtained by Rubakov and Spiridonov [Mod. Phys. Lett. A 3, 1337 (1988)]. The superalgebra contents subtended by osp(2/2) and osp(3/2) are analyzed and exploited in order to get constants of motion in both contexts through parallel properties on the supersymmetric harmonic oscillator.

Arbitrary-order parasupersymmetric coherent states of quantum harmonic oscillator

Hossein Fakhri, Mirenayatollah Bahadori

The eigenstates of arbitrary-order parasupersymmetric Hamiltonian p corresponding to a particle with spin p /2 in the presence of a harmonic oscillator potential and constant magnetic field directed along the z -axis are constructed in terms of eigenstates of a one-dimensional harmonic oscillator. Also, parasupersymmetric coherent states with degenerate multiplicity of an ad hoc bosonic annihilation operator of parasupersymmetric eigenstates of the Hamiltonian mentioned above are calculated.

Coherent states and parasupersymmetric quantum mechanics

N. Debergh

It is well known that Parafermi and Parabose statistics are natural extensions of the usual Fermi and Bose ones, enhancing trilinear (anti)commutation relations instead of bilinear ones. Due to this generalization, positive parameters appear: the so-called orders of paraquantization p (= 1, 2, 3, ...) and h sub 0 (= 1/2, 1, 3/2, ...), respectively, the first value leading in each case to the usual statistics. The superpostion of the parabosonic and parafermionic operators gives rise to parasupermultiplets for which mixed trilinear relations have already been studied leading to two (nonequivalent) sets: the relative Parabose and the relative Parafermi ones. For the specific values p = 1 = 2h sub 0, these sets reduce to the well known supersymmetry. Coherent states associated with this last model have been recently put in evidence through the annihilation operator point of view and the group theoretical approach or displacement operator context. We propose to realize the corresponding studies within the new context p = 2 = 2h sub 0, being then directly extended to any order of paraquantization.

Defining coherent states: why must they be eigenstates of the annihilation operator?

Juan Pablo Paz, Augusto J. Roncaglia

This is a pedagogical paper where we present a physically motivated approach to introduce the coherent states of a harmonic oscillator from which it is simple to rigorously derive their mathematical definition. We do this in two different ways that turn out to be equivalent but emphasize two related but different aspects of classicality. First, we analyze which are the quantum states that are the closest one can get to a point in phase space and demonstrate the validity of the following theorem: (i) The product of the uncertainty in position and that of momentum saturates the bound imposed by Heisenberg uncertainty relations for all times if and only if the state is an eigenstate of the annihilation operator. Second, we analyze the way in which the difference between the expectation value of the energy and the energy associated with the expectation values of position and momentum depends on the state, and show the validity of the following theorem (ii) the difference between the expectation value of the energy and the energy associated with the expectation values is minimal if and only if the state is an eigenstate of the annihilation operator. We also show that the reason why coherent states are chosen as the most classical ones by the decoherence process induced by coupling the particle to an environment in the standard Quantum Brownian motion model, is precisely due to the validity of the two above theorems.

Generalized annihilation operator coherent states

Gautam Kumar Ghosh

A set of generalized coherent states as eigenstates of the annihilation operator is proposed. These states are analytic functions of a complex variable and admit a resolution of identity with positive measure. Guided by the classical action angle transformation and the correspondence principle a formalism is developed for the construction of the annihilation operator for a given Hamiltonian.
