Abstract

In this paper by virtue of the technique of integration within an ordered product (IWOP) of operators and the intermediate coordinate-momentum representation in quantum optics, we derive the normal ordering and antinormal ordering products of the operator ( fQ + gP ) n when n is an arbitrary integer. These products are very useful in calculating their matrix elements and expectation values and obtaining some useful mathematical formulae. Finally, the applications of some new identities are given.

Recast combination functions of coordinate and momentum operators into their ordered product forms*

Lei Wang, Xiang‐Guo Meng, Ji‐Suo Wang

By using the parameter differential method of operators, we recast the combination function of coordinate and momentum operators into its normal and anti-normal orderings, which is more ecumenical, simpler, and neater than the existing ways. These products are very useful in obtaining some new differential relations and useful mathematical integral formulas. Further, we derive the normally ordered form of the operator (fQ + gP)−n with n being an arbitrary positive integer by using the parameter tracing method of operators together with the intermediate coordinate–momentum representation. In addition, general mutual transformation rules of the normal and anti-normal orderings, which have good universality, are derived and hence the anti-normal ordering of (fQ + gP)−n is also obtained. Finally, the application of some new identities is given.

Normally ordering the Dirac's radial momentum operator and the power of radial coordinate operators by virtue of the IWOP technique

Hong-Yi Fan, Junhua Chen

By virtue of the technique of integration within an ordered product of operators we derive the normal ordering expansion of the Dirac's radial momentum operator. To realize this goal, we also derive some operator identities of the power of radial coordinate operators. They are useful in calculating expectation values in the coherent state.

Operator ordering in quantum optics theory and the development of Dirac s symbolic method

Hong-Yi Fan

We present a general unified approach for arranging quantum operators of optical fields into ordered products (normal ordering, antinormal ordering, Weyl ordering (or symmetric ordering)) by fashioning Dirac's symbolic method and representation theory. We propose the technique of integration within an ordered product (IWOP) of operators to realize our goal. The IWOP makes Dirac's representation theory and the symbolic method more transparent and consequently more easily understood. The beauty of Dirac's symbolic method is further revealed. Various applications of the IWOP technique, such as in developing the entangled state representation theory, nonlinear coherent state theory, Wigner function theory, etc, are presented.
