Generalized Phase Space Representation of Operators

Klauder, J R, Skagerstam, B S

Published Dec 5, 2006• 14 citations
OpenAlex

Abstract

Introducing asymmetry into the Weyl representation of operators leads to a variety of phase space representations and new symbols. Specific generalizations of the Husimi and the Glauber-Sudarshan symbols are explicitly derived

SymQuPS: Symbolic Quantum Phase Space Algebra in Python

Hendry M. Lim, Donny Dwiputra, Ahmad R. T. Nugraha

We present \texttt{SymQuPS}, a SymPy-based algebra system in Python mainly aimed toward the phase space representation of quantum mechanics within the Cahill-Glauber formalism (including the Glauber-Sudarshan $P$, Wigner, and Husimi $Q$ representations). By extension, the package serves as an algebraic venue for canonical quantization. A key feature is the phase space representation of an arbitrary Lindblad master equation, which gives the phase space equation of motion of the quantum system. We describe the core functionalities of the package, consisting of $s$-ordered operators, the star products, and the phase space representation. Some examples of use are given to illustrate the application of the package, and the package's performance in typical use cases is discussed.

On the coherent states, displacement operators and quasidistributions associated with deformed quantum oscillators

Paolo Aniello, Vladimir I. Man’ko, Giuseppe Marmo +2 more

The Wigner (W), Husimi-Kano (Q) and Glauber-Sudarshan (P) quasidistributions are generalized to f-deformed quasidistributions which extend the parametric family of s-ordered quasidistributions of Cahill and Glauber. The deformation procedure is obtained via a canonical nonisometric transform of the displacement operators which preserves the form of the standard creation-annihilation commutation relation, hence the Heisenberg-Weyl algebra, but changes the scalar product in the Hilbert space of the oscillator states. A whole class of new resolutions of the identity is introduced. The time evolution equation for the new generalized quasidistributions is derived.

By extension, the package serves as an algebraic venue for canonical quantization. A key feature is the phase space representation of an arbitrary Lindblad master equation, which gives the phase space equation of motion of the quantum system. We describe the core functionalities of the package, consisting of sss-ordered operators, the star products, and the phase space representation. Some examples of use are given to illustrate the application of the package, and the package's performance in typical use cases is discussed.
